We had the honor of welcoming The Honorable Roy K. Altman, United States District Judge for the Southern District of Florida, as a keynote speaker for our incoming 1L students.
Judge Altman shared his experience and insights with the Class of 2029, offering valuable lessons on preparation, integrity, humility, professional responsibility, and the many opportunities a legal education can provide.
Following his address, students received a copy of Judge Altman’s book, “Israel on Trial,” and had the opportunity to meet with him during a special book signing.
Thank you, Judge Altman, for spending time with our newest Bobcats and inspiring them as they begin their STU Law journey! 💙⚖️

Associate Professor of Law David R. Upham`s latest article, "Constitutional Parental Rights: No `Substantive Due Process` Required," has been published by Public Discourse.
In the article, Professor Upham examines the constitutional foundations of parental rights through the original meaning of the Fourteenth Amendment, offering a historical and constitutional analysis of the relationship between parental authority and due process. The essay builds upon the scholarship presented in his recently published book, Taking American Citizenship Seriously: The Recovery of the Fourteenth Amendment.
