Federalist Society

Forty years ago on April 23rd, 1982, students from around the country came together at Yale Law to organize the First Annual Federalist Society Student Symposium.

The symposium laid the foundation for what would grow to become a national organization of over 60,000 students, lawyers, and faculty members.

As we look back at the last 40 years, we want to thank everyone who has supported our commitment to fair and open debate and continues to do so today.

We hope you will join us in celebrating this milestone at one of our many events this year or by sharing your favorite FedSoc moments with us on social media by using #FedSoc40.

Happy Anniversary!
