WAMC Student Town Meeting to feature New Visions: Law & Government class

New Visions: Law & Government students and their teacher, Rich Bader, spent November 24 behind the microphone as they were taped participating in WAMC/Northeast Public Radio's Student Town Meeting. The class chose the following topic for the show, which will air in late January or early February: "What motivates acts of domestic terrorism and what can be done by the government to effectively address the motivation of terrorists?"

Panelists meeting with the students included:
- FBI Special Agent Phillip Irizarry

- Eric Maxwell, a trial attorney beginning in 1981 in private practice, for
the ACLU and for the government. He is a former staff attorney for the ACLU
of Massachusetts and currently a volunteer attorney with the NY Civil Liberties Union, Capital Region Chapter. He received The Luther Knight McNair Award from the ACLU of Massachusetts for significant contributions to the cause of civil liberties. He has tried and handled appeals on many First Amendment as well as civil rights cases in state and federal courts; and

- Dr. David Hennessy, professor and chair of the business and law department
at Schenectady Community College and chair of Schenectady's Homeland
Security and Public Safety Training Consortium. Dr. Hennessy teaches a class
in "Terrorism and Public Safety."
