    The Chapman University School of Law presents the 2009 Chapman Law Review Symposium on January 30, 2009 8:00 am to 4:00 pm at Chapman University in historic Old Towne Orange. This year’s Symposium topic is "Lincoln's Constitutionalism in Time of War: Lessons for the War on Terror?" .

    What Would Lincoln Do?
    Constitutional Approaches to Wartime Finance and Economics

    A panel will discuss whether President Lincoln's Greenback approach to financing the Civil War is an economic model other war-time presidents should consider and will consider the economic effects of war, will decipher which elements of war strengthen an economy, and which elements burden an economy.

    Civil Liberties for Civil Rights:
    Justifying Wartime Decline of Civil Liberties by a Gain of Civil Rights

    A panel will consider whether these limiting measures on Americans' civil liberties: the suspension of the writ of habeas corpus; the institution of military commissions to try combatants; and limitations on the 1st Amendment; were justifiable by the subsequent civil rights secured as the result of each war-namely, the Reconstruction Amendments which secured the civil rights of African Americans after the Civil War and liberation of the Iraqi people resulting from the War on Terror.

    Four year old Orange Resident Art Exhibit at Orange Public Library
    Orange resident Maya Shokati was born into a family that appreciates art, so as a result she started painting when she was just six months old, experimenting with her fingerprints and footprints with the help of her mother. This budding young artist, now four years old, is exhibiting her original artwork at the Orange Public Library & History Center (Main Library).

    The Maya Shokati exhibit has been on display in the Main Library’s art gallery since November. The exhibit runs through January 31, 2009. The art gallery is located in the Orange Public Library & History Center located at 407 E. Chapman Ave.
