How Did the Founders View the Role of Education?

In this Federalist Society America 250 series, experts analyze modern legal and policy debates through the lens of the Founding generation. The Founders gave us the tools to answer many contemporary questions; join us as we explore those answers.Education today looks radically different than it did at the Founding, but that may be changing. As America celebrates its 250th anniversary, this webinar will explore the government’s role in education during the Founding era, the subsequent 19th- and early 20th-century developments that upended the Founding-era tradition, and the body of Supreme Court precedent that continues to emerge from that upheaval. Is a return to tradition in the making?Featuring:Michael Bindas, Senior Attorney, Institute for JusticeProf. Nicole Stelle Garnett, John P.
