"Is the U.S. Constitution Broken?" -- a Discussion with Prof. Albert

Lecture & Interactive Discussion: "Is the U.S. Constitution Broken?"

The Yale Club of Austin is hosting a special evening of learning and debate about our nation’s governing document. We are honored to welcome as our guest speaker Richard Albert, a professor of law and government from The University of Texas School of Law and an alumnus of Yale College and Yale Law (and, yes, of Harvard and Oxford too!). Professor Albert is an international expert on constitution-making and constitutional design. An advisor to governments and parliaments on constitutional reform, he has published over 30 books on constitutions, democracy, and the rule of law.
