On September 26, President Donald Trump nominated Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court of the United States to fill the vacancy left by the recent death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

If confirmed, Barrett, who has been on Trump’s shortlist for the Supreme Court, would be the youngest justice and give the high court a 6-3 conservative majority. A Catholic who is pro-Second Amendment, she is considered a solid social conservative and a critic of the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare.

Tulane University’s Kim Talus, the James McCulloch Chair in Energy Law and the founding director of the Tulane Center for Energy Law, is available to speak on Russia’s decision to halt natural gas supplies to Poland and Bulgaria.

Amy Gajda, a professor at the Tulane University School of Law, is one of the nation’s leading scholars on privacy, and her new book on the subject is proof of her expertise.

In Seek and Hide: The Tangled History of the Right to Privacy, Gajda examines the history of privacy to show just how long the struggle has been to balance privacy interests against the right of the press to gather and report the news.

The book has received significant praise nationally, including being named by the New York Times as one of the spring season’s most anticipated non-fiction books.
