i appreciate in particular the weight of an award named for such a prolific mind of irvin crystal's. the namesake for this understood better than almost anyone the value of scholars and intellectuals in american public life. and he understood how their roles were actually distinct. by any definition, irvin crystal was among the last century's greatest public intellectua engf academics in vietnam-era foreign policy, he chose rather modestly to define the role of an intellectual as one who speaks with general authority about a subject on which he has no particular competence. [laughter] by contrast, he writing about economics or another expert working in their respective fields is not acting as an intellectual, but simply a professional at work. quite evidently, irvinnspire wok that advances both intellectual pursuit and professional scholarship, both broad interdisciplinary inquiry and deep subject matter expertise. all of it in the service of american ideals worth celebrating. and all to the great credit of an institution worth preserving. so once again i'm grateful, as somebody who

i'm returning to teach at the university of california, irvine.l be teaching both some of the consumer protection courses that i have always taught, but also teaching a new course on legislation and on statutory interpretation. one of the interesting things about this legislation course is all of the academic theories, indeed, the very textbook itself is premised on a kind of orderly, deliberative debate that congress no longer has. that i never saw in my six years in congress. so part of my goal is to think about, what are we missing in terms of thinking about how do we train the generation of advocates to fight for their beliefs in a chaotic system like congress? >> as a former trial lawyer, my hat off to you for educating that next generation of lawyers and also showing them ow how important that white board can be to be able to show the evidence that supports your arguments. you did that with panache. congresswoman katie porter, it's an honor to speak with you. thanks for being here. >> thank you. >>> no time for democratic hand-wringing in vi
