In April 2004, SCIPE hosted two events related to the issue of gay marriage.
The first event was a panel discussion on April 12th on the topic of legal and Constitutional issues related to
marriage. Panelists were attorney J.C. Labowitz '71 and Prof. Ira Strauber (Political Science).
The second event was April 13th. That night we hosted a debate on the statement: "The U.S. Constitution should be amended to define marriage as exclusively between
one man and one woman." Dr. Mike Hartwig, Executive Director of Marriage Matters
argued in support of the statement and Bo Shuff, Field Organizer for Human Rights Campaign argued against it.
