Is gay marriage conservative?

That’s the question being addressed by speakers at a symposium I’m organizing. It’s a first-of-its-kind event, devoted entirely to what has become an intramural debate among conservatives about the issue. The symposium will be held at the South Texas College of Law in Houston on February 15. Besides me, the speakers include:

Professor Gerard Bradley (Notre Dame)

Professor Jesse Choper (Berkeley)

Professor Teresa Collett (St. Thomas)

David Frum (AEI)

Charles Murray (AEI)

Professor Robert Nagel (Colorado)

Jonathan Rauch (Brookings)

Professor John Yoo (Berkeley)

Needless to say, it’s an impressive group of academics and non-academics, many with strong ties to the conservative intellectual movement and/or expertise on the issue of gay marriage. Abstracts of the presentations can be found here.

If you’d like to attend, you can register for the symposium here. Registration is free and lunch is included.
