The Supreme Court and the Originalist Fallacy

The Washington Monthly's Weekly Wrap-Up

‌ ‌ ‌ Picks Of The Week The Supreme Court and the Originalist Fallacy As the Court’s conservative majority readies opinions on abortion and guns, they cling to the idea that we can know what the Founders meant.

No wonder they look away. By David Atkins From the Magazine Near the Mexican Border, Texas University Uses Value and Smarts to Help Students Stay Enrolled By keeping tuition low and offering generous aid to its Hispanic student body, The University of Texas-Rio Grande Valley has lessons for the rest of the country.
