On October 8, the STU College of Law hosted over 150 members of our community attending the historic launch of our Siegfried Wiessner Human Flourishing Distinguished Lecture Series, the first of its kind at our College of Law.
The inaugural lecture was imparted by Catholic University Professor of Law Veryl Miles. Entitled "Catholic Social Teaching and the Law: Helping, Healing, and Restoring Hope," the lecture highlighted the social teaching`s emphasis on the individual and collective duties to help the outcast and the "least of us," across the spectrum of economics, migration policy, and other areas of life.
Professor Miles was awarded a sculpture, designed by master sculptor Santiago Medina called "Human Flourishing," by Professor Siegfried Wiessner, who gave special remarks on how fitting the recognition given to Miles was.
The lecture is the first of many to take place, once a year, perpetually, with the goal of celebrating academic excellence and a commitment to human flourishing by those engaged in the teaching and practice of law.
