Supreme Court Practice Series

The United States Supreme Court Practice Series at Mississippi College School of Law features lawyers who have orally argued cases before the United States Supreme Court or clerks and justices who have served in the United States Supreme Court. The series of speakers provides students, faculty, and guests an opportunity to hear about the experiences the speakers have had with the high court.

Kristine Huskey, a renowned national security and international human rights attorney, spoke at the law school April 1st, 2008. Huskey is a professor and Director of the National Security & Human Rights Clinic at the University of Texas School of Law in Austin, Texas. She delivered remarks on Rasul v.
