Marriage and the Future of DOMA program, April 7

A mini-symposium on
SAME-SEX MARRIAGE AND THE FUTURE OF DOMA:
LAW, POLITICS, FEDERALISM, & FAMILIES

Featuring a lecture on "One State's Challenge to the Defense of Marriage Act"
by Maura Healey, Chief, Civil Rights Division, Massachusetts Attorney General's Office

followed by a panel of legal and academic experts:

Thomas M. Fisher, Solicitor General, State of Indiana
Dawn Johnsen, Walter W. Foskett Professor, IU Maurer School of Law,
and former Deputy Assistant Attorney General, U.S. Department of Justice
Brian Powell, Rudy Professor of Sociology, IU College of Arts & Sciences
and co-author of Counted Out: Same-sex Relations and Americans' Definitions of the Family
Deborah Widiss, Associate Professor, IU Maurer School of Law

Moderated by Steve Sanders, University of Michigan Law School

3 p.m. Thursday, April 7, Maurer School of Law, IU Bloomington. Free and open to the public.

Massachusetts (the first state to legalize same-sex marriage) filed suit against the federal Defense of Marriage Act in 2009. A companion suit was filed by same-sex couples. Last year, a federal judge ruled that DOMA violates the Constitution's 10th Amendment and equal protection guarantee. On Feb. 23, the Obama Justice Department announced it agreed that DOMA was unconstitutional and that it would cease defending several lawsuits against the act. Ms. Healy and our panelists will discuss these dramatic legal and political developments and the larger contexts in which they arise, including the diverse views of the states on federalism and same-sex marriage, and Americans' changing perceptions of gay/lesbian families.

Sponsored by the Maurer School of Law and its LGBT Alumni Advisory Board, the College of Arts & Sciences, the IU Office of Affirmative Action, the IU GLBT Alumni Association, the Center on Law, Society & Culture, and OUTlaw.

The American Graduate school in Paris (AGS)

The American Graduate School in Paris (AGS) counts among its graduates, students who came to us from Indiana University. These were students who wished to pursue an American graduate degree while gaining international experience. As you may have other students who would be interested in applying here too, I would like to tell you more about AGS and its School of International Relations and Diplomacy.

AGS is an independent, private, non-profit American institution of higher education based in Paris, France. The School of International Relations at AGS offers a two-year M.A. program in international relations and diplomacy.

The academic standard at AGS is high. The curriculum is both theoretical and practical, and students are required to research and write a thesis of 60-80 pages. French is not required for admission, but it is a graduation requirement and students study French with our partner institution, the Alliance Française, and some earn a recognised diploma in French language studies.

As well as earning an M.A. at AGS many of our students enrol in double degree programs that we have with partner universities:
• M.A. in Peace and Conflict Resolution at Arcadia University
• M.A. in Diplomacy and Strategic Negotiations at the Université de Paris XI
• LLM at the Université de Cergy-Pontoise

AGS draws students from around the world and the multicultural atmosphere in the classroom is a learning experience in itself. Of course, Paris is an ideal setting for the study of international relations as it is host to so many international organizations, NGOs and embassies, as well as being in proximity to other European capitals. AGS students take full advantage of this wealth of opportunity: guest speakers address them in class, visits are organized and internships are encouraged.

We find that students who have studied with us leave with a deeper understanding of world affairs, as they can now view them from a more international perspective and with a better comprehension of why others do things differently.

If you have students considering graduate school and who would like to add an international dimension to their studies please let them know about the American Graduate School in Paris (www.ags.edu).
