| Description: | Professor Gargano has taught a Discovery Seminar in the fall of 2012, fall of 2013, and fall of 2014 and will teach again in the fall of 2015. Her seminars explore the role of lawyers as agents of social change in the Civil Rights Movement through primary and secondary materials, including oral arguments, Supreme Court case law, other legal documents and narratives.
