Alumni, students, supporters, and community members are invited to the University of Colorado Law School's thought-provoking series, Colorado Law Talks. Featuring our faculty and other members of the Colorado Law community, each talk provides an opportunity to hear about the lecturers' current scholarship and to discuss the questions and ideas that motivate, influence, and shape their work.
The work of Colorado Law’s professors includes an extraordinary array of diverse projects—not just intriguing scholarship, but innovative teaching methods, and valuable contributions to communities beyond the law school. Colorado Law Talks allows us to share some of these projects with you, providing an important opportunity for Colorado Law and the legal community to engage with ideas and with one another.
Colorado Law Talks are held several times each semester at various locations in Denver and are open to the public.
Upcoming Talks
Oppression in American, Islamic, and Jewish Private Law
Thursday, May 12, 2022 | 5:30 – 6:30 p.m. MT
In this talk, Professor Rabea Benhalim will engage in an important conversation about how private law across the legal traditions of American, Islamic, and Jewish law can best protect parties against oppression and exploitation. While much of the conversation on combating oppression is typically focused on public law, Professor Benhalim will explore how private law can provide powerful protections for vulnerable parties.
