“The James Wilson Seminars are virtually unique in the academic world. Not only are they always devoted to what may be the most important question in American law—the relation of natural law to contemporary legal questions—but they also consistently bring together essentially the same set of scholars and judges, which allows the participants to have a much more substantive, serious, and sophisticated conversation, a conversation extended over time in an ongoing pursuit of the truth. These seminars are the most important conferences I attend.”
“I could readily tell that every single person here, both faculty and fellows, were deeply passionate about America and the flourishing of our country, and that's what made our discussions very important."
“I think this is the perfect experience to have...because you're going to think about the law differently after this, you're going to think about the law in a sounder way, in a more logical way, but also in a in a more moral way, and that will inform everything you do and it will make every case feel like it's a part of a coherent whole rather than just kind of groping around in the dark.”
“I think that this institute and the people in it, the faculty and the fellows, my co-fellows, past fellows, will continue to help shape the conservative landscape throughout the legal community in America.”
“The James Wilson Institute is giving people a philosophical vocabulary to objectively describe what it is that makes people moral...attending the James Wilson Fellowship was like unlocking a door to a body of knowledge.”
