I’m very pleased to introduce Professor Steve Vladeck, who will be guesting with us for the next month. Steve has recently lateraled to American University, Washington College of Law, where he will begin teaching this fall. Previously, Steve was a professor at the University of Miami School of Law.
Steve graduated from Yale Law School, where he was awarded the Potter Stewart Prize for Best Team Performance in Moot Court and the Harlan Fiske Stone Prize for Outstanding Moot Court Oralist. He earned a B.A. summa cum laude at Amherst College, where he wrote his senior thesis on “Leipzig’s Shadow: The War Crimes Trials of the First World War and Their Implications from Nuremberg to the Present.”
While a law student, Steve served as Executive Editor of The Yale Law Journal and was Student Director of the Balancing Civil Liberties & National Security Post-9/11 Litigation Project. Working with Professor (now Dean) Harold Koh, he participated in litigation challenging the President’s assertion of power after September 11 to detain individuals without trial. Steve is also part of the legal team headed by Professor Neal K. Katyal of the Georgetown University Law Center that successfully challenged the Bush Administration’s use of military tribunals at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, in Hamdan v. Rumsfeld.
Steve’s teaching and research interests include civil procedure, federal courts, national security law, constitutional law, and legal history. He has clerked for the Honorable Marsha S. Berzon on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, and the Honorable Rosemary Barkett on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit.

OK Steve, now that I’ve finally seen your picture: you look way too young to be so smart and productive. Perhaps you should let folks in on your work habits!

Hi Steve
For the past year, I’ve been trying to find out why architecture has no first amendment recognition. To date, I have received no credible response from architecture professionals or from legal scholars.
Can you answer this question?
Thanks
