Levey/Shaw Debate in NYC Tomorrow

By Curt Levey

Civil rights icon Ted Shaw and I will be debating ?The Future of Diversity Under Obama? tomorrow April 1 at noon and 6 pm in Manhattan. The evening debate at Clifford Chance will focus on racial and gender preferences in law firm hiring and promotion. The noon debate at Columbia Law School will focus on affirmative action in higher education.

If you?re in the area, come watch the debates. It would be nice to have a friendly face or two in what?s sure to be a hostile audience.

Clifford Chance is at 31 W. 52 Street, between 5th and 6th Avenues. The debate is in the 4th Floor Conference Center. RSVP to CCEvents@cliffordchance.com.
