And today we have a final thoughts for you, and this can be a eulogy, a remembrance, or someone important in your lives or in American life who died. This week's final thoughts feature comes from Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan. Honoring someone you might not expect.
Someone completely unlike her. at least as it relates to the law. But completely like her in this sense.
Well, they're human beings. who loved other human beings and being with them That person she honored is the late Supreme Court Justice. Antonin Scalia.
someone that she hunted with. In fact, He taught her. At a hunt. And the occasion Of Justice Kagan speaking about Justice Scalia. was the dedication of George Mason University's Law School.
In his name. Let's drop in and take a listen. I'm deeply honored to participate in this dedication of the Antonin Scalia Law School. Although I have to admit, the name strikes me as a little bit formal. I'm wondering if I can substitute the word dino.
It's so fitting. It's so right. that a fine law school like this one should bear Justice Scalia's name. One reason that's true. The obvious reason, I suppose.
has to do with what Justice Scalia accomplished during his time on the bench. He'll go down in history as one of the most important Supreme Court justices ever. and also one of the greatest. His articulation of textualist and originalist principles. communicated in that distinctive, extraordinary prose, did nothing less than transform our legal culture.
It changed the way almost all judges, and so almost all lawyers think and talk about the law. even if they part ways at one or another point, from his interpretive theories. In reading the statute, does anyone now declined to focus first on its text in context. When addressing constitutional meaning. Does anyone now ignore the Founders' commitments?
And in defending an interpretive stance, even if not just as Scalia's own. Does anyone dispute the need. to constrain judges from acting. on their personal policy preferences. If the answer is no, And the answer is no.
More mostly now. Yeah. Justice Scalia deserves much of the credit. And that is a legacy worthy of a law school dedication. But there's another reason George Mason couldn't have selected a better name for its law school.
And that's because no one was more enthusiastic. more passionate. about connecting with lost students than just a scalia. He visited and revisited law schools across the country to talk about ideas. As the dean said, I once served as dean of the law school he graduated from.
So I had the good fortune to host the Justice several times. And those days were among the most fun I ever had as Dean. Justice Scalia turned it all on, His brilliance, his wit, His good cheer. And his Well, let's say his confidence in the manifest rightness of all his opinions.
Now, here's the way Justice Scalia described. what he did on those trips. He said this a few years back. He said, I go to law schools just to make trouble. I give lectures and stir up the students.
Yeah. It takes several weeks for their professors to put them back on track. Actually, several weeks were rarely enough. Justice Scalia would go from event to event to event. From group to group to group.
Exciting students. challenging students. Provoking students. charming students. And making them think harder than they had ever thought before about how to do law.
But really, just a sculpture didn't need to show up in person to have that effect. He could grab hold of students Shake them and turn them upside down.
solely by means of his written opinions. He used to say that when he wrote Lost students were one of his target audiences. Maybe his principal one. And if my many hours teacher in law were in any way typical, He had an almost unerring instinct. For what would persuade them?
or at least what would force them to question.
some of their most subtled thinking. Justice Scalia's opinions mesmerize law students. Why shouldn't they? their captivating style, full of wit, dash, and verve. The analytic rigor and precision the insistence upon logic and discipline in legal reasoning, The ability to convey ideas in the way that will make them most stick with the reader.
The very presence of ideas. deep, thought-provoking understandings. of the way law should work. If I heard it once from a student, I heard it a thousand times. Professor Kagan, a student would say, I didn't think I would ever agree with Justice Scalia.
But he just has to be right about this. And so he was. Not always. Yeah. But often.
And so, lost students in generations to come. will tell their professors. And now some of those students will look up and see Justice Scalia's name on their law school's building. What a great Great, then. Congratulations to George Mason University.
And congratulations. to the Nino Scalia Law School. Yeah. for memorializing For celebrating This most remarkable judge and teacher. This is our American stories.
Final thoughts, Justice Kagan. Paying tribute. To Justice Scalia.
