After Scalia: The Politics of Supreme Court Nominations in an Age of Polarization

Thu, March 3, 2016
Lunch Program
Amanda Hollis-Brusky, Kenneth Miller, and George Thomas, panelists; Zachary Courser, moderator

Please join us for a moderated panel discussion at the Athenaeum on the politics and process of replacing Justice Scalia on the Supreme Court Bench. The Dreier Roundtable is organizing a talk about how this vacancy affects the political dynamics of the Court, the Senate, and the current presidential race. Our panel of experts will also address how our polarized politics has shaped the nomination process, and how the timing of the current Supreme Court vacancy has the potential for further polarization.

Professor Amanda Hollis-Brusky of the politics department at Pomona College and Professors Kenneth Miller and George Thomas of the government department at Claremont McKenna College will serve on a panel moderated by Professor Zachary Courser, also of the government department at CMC.
