Understanding the Role of Faith in Professional Contexts and Beyond

Lecture from Dr. Catherine Pakaluk

Wheatley Fellow Thomas B. Griffith was recently interviewed by the University of Virginia's Karsh Institute of Democracy about the constitutional implications of the recent speed and quantity of executive orders coming from the Oval Office.

Wheatley Fellow Thomas B. Griffith wrote an article for the Deseret News about the importance of mantaining public trust in the nonpartisan nature of federal courts, especially when disagreements arise over contentious political issues. He warns that questioning judicial impartiality based solely on disagreement with court decisions is a serious danger to both the judges in question and the Constitution.

Distinguished Wheatley Fellow Shima Baughman was featured on the Faith Matters podcast, sharing both her current research on the positive impact of faith communities on criminal justice and the powerful story of what led to her passion for justice and mercy.
