Sex and the Constitution (Afternoon Session) STANDBY ONLY

The Center for Women’s History  is pleased to present the third annual Diane and Adam E. Max Conference on Women’s History, a cornerstone of the Center’s series of public and scholarly programs. This year through a keynote address and panel discussions, leading scholars of history and law explore the ways in which the U.S. Constitution has defined, protected, and regulated the rights and freedoms of sexuality, marriage, and reproduction throughout our nation’s history.

This program has reached capacity. There will be a standby line before each session of the conference. Individuals are welcome to line up ten minutes before the session is set to begin. At this point we will begin to ascertain if additional seating is available. Shortly before the program begins, we will allow people from the standby line into the Auditorium if we are able to do so.
