>> well, academic writing covers an awful broad subject. [laughter] and i do share john roberts' view that very often the law reviews are filled up with what happened in bulgaria rather than what happened in hyde park. [laughter] so i understand that. i think there's a lot of legal writing that is the product of people getting, trying to get tenure and writing interesting stuff. [laughter] and so i do think there's merit to the notion. but there's also -- you stumble across some awfully interesting and important stuff when you just go through the law reviews. but i, it's sort of like anything else in the law; you do the best you can with what's available, but there's a tremendous variety. to answer that question in a simple way. >> i think that might be the theme of this conversation. you do the best you can with what's available, right? [laughter] >> that's exactly right. >> it's a nice, modest theme, isn't it? [laughter] so, justice kagan, obviously, at the harvard law school people did write these sort of meta-theory things. not quite as

kind of model for connecting academic research.enting with and testing new ways of translating academic research for companies that is what i'm interested in. emily: we think the future of bitcoin is? joey: they reminds me a lot of the internet. i worked on a lot of the early internet programs in japan. thatd a lot of time toward the technology before people started pouring money into it. problem with bitcoin as you got it billion dollars in venture money for we really figured it out. bitcoin is that it will be to banking and law what the internet was to media and advertising. bit ahead of our pace. investments were making to make of doing theahead basics. we hire and are paying for a lot of the core developers. nonfinancial interest. working on bitcoin and financial documents. what you think is the single most transformative idea joey:ou are working on? the reason not going to silicon valley every couple weeks is because the artificial believe the computers with it so smart you can ignore policy and law in all these things. theref

even with academic achievement it's a successful mindset you're trying to develop.ave school those transferable skills and habits can be taken to a professional environment, to anywhere. your own business. because now you have a mindset of success. if you have no character behind that, you're really not going to be able to ignite it to make it manifest anything iou way your character grew in this mentoring program. >> personally i struggled with self-confidence. that was one of the things when i actually met him, he noticed that. why don't you stand tall and speak. i was timid. >> speak up. >> speak up. i tried to play the background and i mentioned that to him. he said you have to acknowledge and embrace who you are and what you want to do and part of that was lack of passion formica rear and what i wanted to do. i didn't know where i wanted to go. i was kind of lost. it allowed me to play the background and stay in my comfort zone. as you see i'm able to speak and talk about my growth and led me to personal growth and development? dr. forman, this program you've d

and then academic freedom was a , big issue, on campus, and also in the state. when george wallace and some in the montgomery legislature realized what was going on here, they decided they needed to take control of the university in terms of who comes here to speak. clayton powell came here to speak in 1964. dick groat gregory -- dick gregory came here to speak. the students had invited people like that to come down here. and then, some of the more radical students decided they didn't want any kind of impediments to bringing in speakers. and they made an issue out of it this by inviting eldridge cleaver, jerry rubin, and abbie hoffman, and tom hayden, that founder of saying yes. the president said, we can't do that. had they come here to speak, the university would have gone on to the legislature very drastically. the thing about frank rose, was, he knew what battles were worth fighting and what battles were not. for instance, we had a program here called emphasis. it started in 1966. bobby kennedy was the first keynote speaker for emphasis when he was senator.

specifically mention church groups and i specifically mention academic groups. those are national organizations or international organizations. if you single out israel as a national or international organization, alone among nations of the world, or a bouquet -- boycott i think an anti-semi. of same thing cannot be said palestinians who are engaged in the bbs movement. the fact that they are more interested in israel then north korea or serial -- syria, maybe they feel a connection. i would not call them anti-semites. they might be but i don't know it by the nature of the movement. i would call immoral idiots. which is different. who haveeen many jews stood with the enemies of the jewish people. whoughout our history thought they were doing it for the best of reasons and who didn't intend to bring harm to the jewish people but ultimately they brought to power forces that cause great harm to the jewish people. that was the case with the bolshevik movement. with jews that wanted to join the nazi party. people don't know the spirit they supported, until about 1935

you need to bring the academics, do fda trials.f the times the technology is not ready to be companies so sometimes the model does not work. tech is a new model for connecting academic research to companies. it is experimenting with and testing new ways to translate academic research into companies and is really important. that is what i am really interested in. emily: one thing in the spoken out about is bitcoin. what do you think the future is? mr. ito: it reminds me a lot of the internet. one of my first companies that i was the ceo of was an internet service provider in japan. i worked in a lot of the early internet circles. the thing about the internet is we had a lot of time to work out the technology before people started pouring in money. the problem with bitcoin is, we have $1 billion in venture money before we figured out the protocols. the upside of bitcoin is that it will be to banking, law, contracts, and accounting what the internet was to media and advertising. the tricky part is we are ahead. i'm worried that the in

readers so they have a much more academic reading class to feed than we do. we are more concentrated of history and politics and philosophy religion war classic literature less current literature and much less of arts and decorations would and furniture which they can concentrate on. >> order to books that were recently reviewed? >> we recently reviewed charles murray book coming apart which is one of the most important books on the american social class and society at large we review all kinds of books not just those by conservatives but also the counterpart to his book our kids of a political scientist at harvard in both i thought reseed wonk interesting reviews that says a lot about the peculiar state of american politics and society these days. we have not yet had the big piece on donald trump my riding that now. [laughter] >> when will it be published ? >> in the spring issue coming out in may. >> host: what is the peculiar situation of american bin politics of society today you are reviewing with putnam books? >> something strange has happened in americ

and my question is related to being an academic.and academic writers are trained to be as dull as humanly possible. so i guess what i'm wondering is that some of them have been really good at translating their work into the online discourse. so i wanted to know what your recommendations are for people who are trained within the horror zone of the academy and then also, actually, -- [inaudible] was at our school. do you remember -- >> i do, i loved it. >> she was fantastic. my second question is i sense or it may be just my fantasy, that there's a real black intellectual movement occurring in the country and in the culture, and it's primarily occurring online. i'm also wondering how black academics can be more supportive of that movement, because i think it's happening, and we should be doing more. so those are my two questions. >> within the construct of journalism from a very straightforward magazine publication and then tv and radio but also to publications that are data journalism oriented. and i think at least for me there's a h

this worldview this postmodern worldview that i describe may sound a bit academic. it is is true that i had to go back in and read some of the academic studies and really where the ideas originated in the last 35 years years about critical theories and the like. i was astonished by how badly written they were in how much they relied on an insular medically sealed secular reasoning where nothing was allowed to interfere with the circle starting one place and ending begging the question all along. but it is not just academic, it's actually very real stuff of modern politics and culture. it is spread and enforced by prevailing world view of groupthink. and that is professed by professors, teachers, lawyers, government officials, entertainers, well not only think alike and who cannot possibly imagine a worldview outside of their own. it's not a conspiracy, it's it's frankly a consensus. they don't have to sit in dark rooms thinking talked experiences. they just have to win could not an agreement if they're all a part of the same class and they also share the same educat

you looked at me like they're going to go off in an academic direction. and i did. i benefited greatly not only from your support, but also from the discussion we've had and i think the subtitle is entirely yours. i greatly benefit from their support and friendship. i also feel true look as they are. my old boss i wouldn't even be in this position if it weren't for the faith and confidence they'll having me. it's great to see you here, so. well, yes, we do have a problem. if you look up the definition of the word liberal in the dictionary, you will find that means many different themes. the word rod minded comes out. the word open minded comes out. a liberal is supposed to be somebody according to the definition that is tolerant of different points of view. the idea being that you may disagree with me, but we have every right to your opinion. above all, no one has the right night you were mayor freedoms of expression and conscience. in the marketplace of ideas, competition must be kept open. there is no settled science. the ends of history are open-ended. we are not

readers and i would say they have a more academic read in class then we do. they are concentrated in history, politics, religion, the war, classic literature. we did a little less current literature and a little more classic than they do and much less in the way of arts and decorations and furniture and all the kinds of interesting things which in the times literary supplement they take another example from england and it can concentrate with utter abandonment. what are two books that have recently been reviewed? >> guest: we reviewed charles murray's book coming apart which is one of the most important books on the american social class and society at large that's been published in probably 20 years. we have all kinds of books of course not just by conservatives over charles murray is the kind of libertarian writer but we also reviewed you could see the counterpart to his book our kids come and go so i thought received long interesting reviews which said a lot about the peculiar state of american politics and society these days. we haven't yet had a big piec

lack of sleep, experts say, not only impact academics, but also, general decision-making skills. though, no matter when school starts, this newly required camden teacher says, student must first learn to discard their distractions. >> if they don't get enough sleep, they don't put down the video games, turnoff the computer, they're not going to get the sleep they need. >> across the state officials expect to hear arguments for and against delayed start. a decision that doesn't just affect students? big trickle down effect. so once you training one, you have to think about the morning program, then the after school programs. >> today southern region meeting is set to begin at 4:00 p.m. and go until 7:00 at the camden county college blackwood campus, in camden, justin finch, cbs-3, eyewitness flues. >> turning to campaign 2016, ted cruz is counting on winning the indianna prime tomorrow to keep frontrunner donald trump locking up the republican nomination before the convention, latest pole shows trump with 15-point lead over cruz, and support for john kasich has fallen dramatically

and each campus focuses on something slightly different academically. so claremont mckenna has a disproportionate number of political scientists and economists. we have many -- we have a vastly disproportionate number of majors in economics, finance, political science, international relations and those kinds of fields. but if you want to study classics, if you want to study latin or greek, you have to go to pomona or scripps to take those courses. but they can come here and study political science if they wish to. and so you have a kind of a balance of trade. and a typical student spends maybe a fourth of his courses off campus or, as we like to say here, abroad. [laughter] >> host: is this a conservative college? >> guest: claremont mckenna is more conservative than any of the other claremont colleges and more conservative than any other high quality, top ten-style liberal arts college in the country. but that means that in contemporary terms we have probably 15 professors who may be republicans, conservative republicans, 15 out of 130. however, if you

intersexuality, which is movement n -- and today, which underpins the phenomenon that we find in academic groups, because if you look at it, the organization of health academics -- this is the ature of intersexuality. section the op -- inter defined as a human rights and israel is the oppressor and it results in a situation where the movement was joined by the environmentalist, the women's groups, the black glupes -- groups and so on. one of the things about this when i think about this, in a way, the soviet movement pioneered this, when you think back, you had academic for soviet jury and scientists for soviet jury, we then what we came to be known on behalf of it which is part of the struggle for human rights and when the proteo typical for the struggle was the struggle. this has been turned on its head and it has been turned on its head and recently, a group of students that we hosted at our home told us regarding the recent dynamic, it wasn't just directed against israel, it was directed against the jewish students in the sense they were seen as part of the white privileged group that

a much more academic reading class to feed than we do so our books are more concentrated in history, politics, philosophy, religion, war, literature, classic literature. we do a little bit less current hit tour, more classic literature, than they do, and we do much less in the way of arts and decorations and furniture and all the kinds of interesting things which say, in the times literary supplement to take another imminent example -- with utter abandon. >> host: charles kessler, what two books have recently been reviewed in the claremont review? >> guest: well, we recently reviewed charles murray's book, "coming apart" one of the most important books on the american social class and society at large that has been published in probably 20 years. we review all kinds of books, of course, not just books by conservatives, although charles murray is a kind of libertarian writer and we also review, you can say, the counterpart to his book, "our kids," a book by-putnam, political scientist at harvard. and helped receive long, interesting, meaty, reviews which said a lot about the state of

i think this is bad for academic and bad for societies. because i think society's intellectual cultural help depends very much on a very viable sort of conversation that art -- said area of argument and die lettic and more voices to contribute in a way truthfully and accurately more powerful culture is, and we've got a very bland professional dialogue about poetry . for example, almost you never see an academic give a bad review to a book of poetry because they might be on your grant committee, maybe on a prize committee to professional courtesy. i think professional courtesy is the death of an art form. [laughter] >> one of the few places you would think many americans would be regularly exposed to poetry is in the bible. close readers of the bible know that the psalms many of the books are in the medium of poetry, and you would think this might have cultivated a familiarity and affection for poetry among close readers of the bible. but this doesn't seem took the case. any ideas why that might be? >> once again i think that if you go, you

to ensure the academic success of millions of kids in our communities. all the way to graduation day. but that won't happen without you. so take the pledge at unitedway.org. make a difference in the life of a child. suit up like your favorite nfl players, and become a volunteer reader, tutor or mentor with united way. >>> today the nation's top elected republican house speaker

to be clear, i wholeheartedly agree that basic academic scheme and equal education and opportunity are essential to a functioning democracy for reasons i've not elaborate here. it is vital that we recognize that like reading or math, citizenship is learned by doing and the skills will not evolve as a side effect of maturity or of academic attainment. practicing the skills of being a citizen is essential for a democracy which aims to sustain a public sphere informed by key democratic principles, created and sustained in environments that support the gradual in sensual development of skills to require focus on protection of democratic school environments in which students free speech and other basic rights are properly bracket nice to celebrate it. thank you. [applause] >> thank you very much. you know, the cato institute depends on the first amendment in a lot of ways. it's part of our strategy. it's always part of the outsider status for an 80 or 95 and so on that really hadn't gained traction in some ways. we wanted to get people with dominant views to come here and debate us. the fir

a class of 514, truly exemplary young men and women, research, academic achievement, athletics, men's and women's national basketball champions are among us. choral members we just heard , musicians who just toward it through the united states and europe, students who have served, and classrooms and churches and hospitals, studied and served abroad. we have among us a princess of the indy 500 festivals, and a graduate submitted a photo soon adorn our bicentennial stamp. this is a class of extraordinary accomplishment. i believe the 2016 graduating class of indiana wesleyan university represents a generation of promise and i congratulate you all. [applause] gov. pence: today is all about you and it should be fun. you are all winners. and, the prize is waiting right up here. and the winners have fun. i am here as your governor, but it is not the highest office that i hold. the highest office i hold is actually d-a-d. it is and it will always be.

it means you engage in academics and reviews to try to shape. books thatand the existed in african-american history. for most of us who came of that age, we all knew. the politics of intellectual inquiry. when darling created her series and others came along to create series, we did something more than open up, we created space. in the process of creating space, we allow new ideas to emerge and to find a way to gain traction. in those intervening three decades, if we look at all the work and talk about e future of the african-american past, it's important to think about the past and how much has changed and how much work there was that went into place to get to today.83 and recalling also the the politics of intellectual inquiry is never done because it too is part of the struggle. that david like concluded with, invoking frederick douglass. anyway, he was embodying the notion that ideas matter. we are reminding that the power of words and images actually come together to give us some sense. my colleagues are going to talk in a certain way about

ew welcome to the berkeley society's final gathering for this academic year. justice antonin scalia legacy. copresident of the chapter and we're very gracious for your kind support you've given us throughout this year. you've meant so much to us. we're indebted to our distinguished panelists who have come together to celebrate the distinguished legacy of justice scalia. tod today, we are joined by the following. today's event is also dedicated o justice scalia, the justice of the supreme court of the united states for nearly three ecades, one of the longest tenures on that institution. as an occasion, marking one of on the ice's milestones court, chief justice roberts' colleague says since chief justice roberts came on the same. it's not been the elena kagan remarked the yesterday will go down in history as one of the most transformational supreme court justices in the nation. is views on interpreting text have changed the way all of us talk and think about the law. all interpretation, and its subspecies, originalism and constitutional construction, his princi

one, it was very difficult for me, in terms of my own academic experience. school was a terrible and terrorizing experience. i'll just be candid with you. spelling, reading, writing, i had speech therapy, i went through -- and i just, interestingly, in preparation to come here, i had not realized, i went to five schools in seven years. so i bounced around because, frankly, the schools, back then, didn't really focus on it, and they didn't want to focus on it even after they discovered that they should be focusing on it. so, my mother, to her credit, kept bringing me to new environments. but i wanted to make the point, it wasn't just about me. it was about my mother. she was a single mom with another daughter -- my sister -- and she didn't have dyslexia, but the impact it had on her is remarkably pronounced. and i think that's just another part of the story. we talk about the impact of the kids and our own struggles, but the impact in the household is very, very challenging. >> well, it's tough because she's fighting for you, she wants you to succeed. you're

but, it is not just academic. it's actually the very real stuff of modern politics and culture and it is spread and enforced by a prevailing world view, groupthink and theit is sp subtitle, that is professed by professors, teachers, journalists, lawyers, entertainers, increase in the corporate leaders who not only think alike, but who cannot possibly imagine and worldview outside of their own. it is not a conspiracy. it's just spring via consensus. they don't have to sit in dark rooms and concoct conspiracies all although the activists do. they are all part of the same class. they'll largely share the same education. they operate in a world of cozy symbiotic relationship. they are wealthy, connected, come from the best schools, watch the same shows and movies. they live in the same neighborhood. they intermarry, interact with one another.e they are the most influential today, people in american politics and culture. many of them, particularly the professors and researchers are refunded directly or indirectly by th

if you look at that market annually it is $5 billion annually spent by academic libraries. it is a big prize and we're very well positioned to grab a piece of that. >> do you expect to keep that growthing oringly or are you constantly looking at acquisitions on the children's side digital? >> absolutely. first we are an acquirer. we've made 25 acquisitions in the last 15 years spending a hundred million pounds largely generated by harry potter. we plan to license in content from archives that haven't been digitized yet and use the considerable wealth of material in bloomsbury academic and professional to be the foundation for them. >> you mentioned harry potter and it continues to reap rewards. you have some illustrated editions coming out. also the play to hit london. the script itself a copy of that went o another publisher. were you -- >> harry potter has hundreds of publishers all over the world. it is such big phenomenon. and we were incredibly happy this year to bring out the first illustrated edition of harry potter. and the artist working with j.k. rowling has produ

. >>> welcome to the berkeley federalist society final public gathering for this academic year. justin antonin scalia, an exceptional legacy. i'm so han dasgupta, the outgoing president of the chapter and we're grateful for the gracious support you've given us throughout the year. you've meant so much to us. we are endebted to our distinguished panelist who have come together to celebrate the distinguished legacy of justin antonin scalia. today's stewardship spence, mr. kevin walker and mr. david derek. today's event is an existence to the brilliant and storied legacy of justice scalia. he served on the supreme court nor nearly three decades, one of the langest tenures on the institution. marking one of the milestones on the court, chief justice roberts said since scalia came on the supreme court, the place has not been the same. indeed, kagen remarks that justice scalia will go down in history as one of the most transformational supreme court justices of the nation. his views on interpreting texts have changed the way we think and talk about law. all interpretation and sub spec

this was a book that was abetted by other academics. usually when you submit it book to an academic press at least two, sometimes three scholars are asked to review it before they decide to publish it. i thought it was better to go with virginia, and i did. ever since then we have been really good friends. we've been on this journey together. peter has been writing about jefferson from the standpoint of a human intellectual historian so he writes about of jefferson's writing, what he read and how it influenced his life. i am more social history, i do i write about jefferson and slavery, his private life, some of the politics as well, so this is an opportunity for two people who have been looking from a different perspective to come together and see what we could see. >> until jefferson came into my life i did not write about people. dead people did did not interest me particular.er i'm interested in ideas. and of jefferson, until annette was all about people. she is a social historian. it was a thrill for me, as an we old guy to find ou

people from academic standpoint and answered rhetorically said that answer was unbelievable academic afterwards. of course not. i said that afterwards. everybody understands that. >> so donald, there are two family members around the set that are very happy this morning. my brother is extraordinarily happy. >> he's a great guy, by the way. >> george brutalized me for nine months whenever i criticized you. and nicole actually had to top going home for a while, her parents. >> i got a tweet last night when i asked about republicans for hillary, they start hate tweeting me. what about democrats for donald trump. i'll ask you about democrats for donald trump because that is how, sir, i think you see you could remake the map. i want to ask you about something you said last night. you said i love winning with the women. the media gives you short shrift. you don't need to with all women but married women. you need to turn around dismal poll numbers with the kinds of women you need to bring around. >>ening ole, thank you, say hello to your parents. i really appreciate them. >> you just made

know that this was a book that had been infected by other academics. usually when you submit at least two and sometimes three scholars are asked to review before they decide to publish it so i felt it was better and ever since we havwe've been good friends on ts journey together. peter has been writing about jefferson from the standpoint of the new intellectual historians as he writes about jefferson's writings, what jefferson read and how it affected and influenced his life. i'm more a social historian and i do write about jefferson in his private life into some of the politics as well, so this was an opportunity for two people who'd been looking at a person from a different perspective to come together to see what we can say about jefferson that might be new. >> until jefferson came into my life i didn't write about people, dead people don't interest me in particular. i'm interested in ideas and jefferson because i came to virginia ou out of self defensei have to work on jefferson and of course ms is all about people, she's a social historian and it

of specifically mentioned church groups and i specifically mentioned academic groups. because those are national organizations or international organizations. therefore if you single out israel at the national or international organization, alone among nations of the world i believe you're an anti-semi. i i do not believe the same can be said of jews are palestinians who are engaged in the vbs movement. i will not call them a anti-salmon night because the fact that they're more interested in israel than in north korea, iran, or syria, or a hundred other countries in the world is because they feel a specific connection and may be responsibility to that. i would not call them anti-semites. they might be. but i don't know it by nature of the movement itself. what i would call them as moral idiots. which is different. there have been many jews who have actually taken, stood stood with the enemies of the jewish people throughout our history, who thought they were doing it for the best of reasons. they do not intend to bring harm to the jewish people but ultimately they brou

begin to turn itself away from a regional football party school toward becoming a major national academic institution. that is what it has become, but it was a long journey in the 1960's that sent us that direction. there were a lot of changes going on at the beginning of the 1960's. but really, it stems from 1956. at the first effort of desegregation, which failed horribly, caused riots. a student for three days. desegregation is desegregation. we were under the same court order in 1963, but officially we had been desegregated that the -- although she was expelled, not for anything she did but because the university expelled her to calm the mob that had been raging on the campus. of 1960 -- 1963, the mob ended the presidency of oliver carmichael. they were looking for a new president. they approached frank rose, who was a minister in the church of christ and president of pennsylvania college. he was not anxious to come here in part because the university had a bad reputation. but they approached him, and they finally said, dr. rose, we need you because we are facing desegregation, and we

david: you refer to academic research. the world academic research is quite unusual.avid: the field of finance, i don't know what it was like before 1950, but over the last six or seven years, research has -- academic research has emerged as an academic discipline. beginning when computers that developed in databases became available. a lot of hypotheses can really be tested out. a lot of the things that people took for granted turned out not to be accurate. david: but you have a pipeline directly in the academic community. how many nobel prizes have you had? david: four total. next time you pick up first i will give you some hints. what are people getting wrong now? david: the things people are getting wrong is the are getting nervous and then trading. systematically, people have a tendency to want to invest when expected returns are low and they want to get out of markets when expected returns are high. by the financial turmoil -- when -- re in financial turmoil, because we have prospects, i will get out. markets are already reflecting it. counts ishing that can you

this was a book that had been vetted by other academics. usually when you submit a book to academic press at least two, sometimes we scholars are asked to review it before they decide to publish a. ever since then we've been really good friends. we've been on this journey together. peter has been writing about jefferson from the standpoint of, he's an intellectual historian so he writes about jefferson's writings can what jefferson meant and how it affected and influenced hisorian life. and he writes about politics as well. i am more a social historian.pos i write about jefferson and slavery, his private life, some of the politics as well. so this was an opportunity forge two people have been looking at a person from a different perspective to come together ann see what we could say about jefferson.nt it might be new. i >> until jefferson came into my life i didn't write about people and i really love people, real people but dead people don't interest me particularly. i'm interested in ideas. and jefferson, because i came to virginia out of

know that this was a book that had been vetted by other academics. usually when you submit book to an academic press at least two, sometimes three scholars are asked to review it before they decide to publish it. so i felt it was a better to go with virginia and i did. ever since then we had been good friends. we have been on a journey together, peter journey together, peter has been writing about jefferson from the standpoint of an intellectual historian and he writes about jefferson's writings what he read and how it affected and florence's life and he writes about politics himself. i do write about jefferson and slavery, his private life, some of the politics as well. so this was an opportunity for two people who had been looking at a person at a person from a different perspective to come together and see what we could say about jefferson. >> and till he came into my life i did not write about people but that people don't interest me particularly. i'm interested in ideas. jefferson, because i came from from virginia i had to work on jefferson. an
