1 American Constitution Society of the University of Wisconsin Law School Constitution Article I This organization shall be known as "The American Constitution Society of the University of Wisconsin Law School." Article II Statement of Purpose The American Constitution Society for Law and Policy (ACS), University of Wisconsin Law School Chapter (hereinafter referred to as the Chapter ), is a group of University of Wisconsin law students concerned about the pervasive conservative orthodoxy in American law and politics. We believe deeply in the importance of law as the mechanism that governs the relationships between and among the individuals and institutions that form our society. Further, we recognize the direct relationship between legal theory and the broader political debate about the kind of society in which we live. In recent years, the view has ascended that the traditional values of compassion and respect for human dignity have little or no place in legal discourse. This view permeates all aspects of legal debate: academic scholarship, judicial interpretation, and debate about laws proposed for enactment. The cornerstone of this legal view is an approach to understanding the United States Constitution that is essentially devoid of concern for the way in which the law affects the lives of the people who make up the nation in which we live. We believe, contrary to this conservative orthodoxy, that the law, and, in particular, the Constitution, serves human values. We believe that the Constitution is a charter of liberty, the blueprint for a noble and unique experiment designed to prevent the excesses of government in order to protect the human dignity necessary for individuals to realize the full potential of their lives. The goal of the Constitution, and the United States it created, is to permit people to succeed in the "pursuit of happiness," one of the inalienable rights this nation explicitly was founded to secure to the American people. We believe that the Constitution, and by extension, many other areas of American law, can be understood only by reference to principles of decency, reason, humanity and compassion. We believe that those who enforce the law must have concern for the way in which it affects the lives of the people who make up the nation in which we live. And we believe these principles should form a starting point for enactment, as well as interpretation, of the law. Given our position on the purpose of the law, the mission of the American Constitution Society is to harness the values of compassion and respect for each individual, and to re-incorporate them into American law and politics, in order to build a stronger and more decent national community. We seek to restore the fundamental principles of respect for human dignity, protection of individual rights and liberties, genuine equality, and access to justice to their rightful--and traditionally central--place in American law. We want to strengthen the public case for a vision of the law in which
2 these values are paramount. Our goal is a rekindling of the hope that by reason and decency, we can create an America that is better for us all. Article III Membership Requirements Membership shall be open to all University of Wisconsin Law School students, faculty and staff; however, law school students shall comprise at least 75 percent of Chapter members. Membership requirements, such as academic year membership dues or minimum participation requirements, may be set by the incoming Executive Board, in consultation with the national organization, at the start of the academic year. The Executive Board is not required to impose membership requirements. There is no GPA requirement for membership. Article IV Meetings, Finance, and Decision Making The Chapter shall hold at least five meetings, consisting of programming events on substantive constitutional law and policy issues, each academic year. Meetings will be led by the Chapter President. The structure of these meetings will be flexible. The schedule and time for meetings will be set at the beginning of each semester. Meetings will be advertised through the Law School Student Bar Association announcements during the two weeks prior to the meeting. All members shall receive an notice informing them of the meeting and the meeting agenda at least one week prior to the meeting. All members are encouraged to attend, but attendance is not compulsory.

The Chapter treasurer and/or president will disperse Chapter funds pursuant to an approved directive from the Executive Board. No fine or penalty shall be levied by the Chapter without the approval of the Executive Board pursuant to a majority vote at an Executive Board meeting in which there is a quorum of a simple majority of board members present.
