Mid-Atlantic Chapter Annual Dinner

Several GMU student-members of the JRCLS attended the local attorneys' chapter annual dinner, and then watched Justice O'Connor's speech to the JRCLS national convention over satellite broadcast.

The Mid-Atlantic chapter fed us well, and encouraged the attorneys and students to meet each other and find networking opportunities.

Justice O'Connor's speech was an extended discourse into attorney ethics, and the imperative to affirmatively do good, and not simply avoid doing bad.

"The Constitution of the United-States is a great and treasured part of my religion . . .
The distortion of any fundamental principle of our constitutional government
would thus do violence to my religion."
--J. Reuben Clark, Stand Fast By Our Constitution, p. 7.

"And that law of the land which is constitutional, supporting that principle of freedom in maintaining rights and privileges, belongs to all mankind, and is justifiable before me. Therefore, I, the Lord, justify you, and your brethren of my church, in befriending that law which is the constitutional law of the land; and as pertaining to law of man, whatsoever is more of less than this, cometh of evil. I, the Lord God, make you free, therefore ye are free indeed; and the law also maketh you free."
--Doctrine & Covenants 98:5-8
