About Barry Law Federalist Society Student Chapter

Established in 2004 as a chapter of The Federalist Society for Law & Public Policy Studies, the Barry Law Federalist Society became the nation’s second-largest chapter in 2014. Additionally, it was the recipient of one of the Society’s four “Feddie” awards bestowed annually, becoming the only Florida student chapter to have won the honor. The Federalist Society for Law & Public Policy Studies is founded on the principles that the state exists to preserve freedom, that the separation of governmental powers is central to the U.S. Constitution, and that it is emphatically the province and duty of the judiciary to say what the law is, not what it should be.  The Society seeks both to promote an awareness of these principles and to further their application through its activities.
