I’ve been a relative stranger around here of late, as I moved from Radford University in Virginia, where I taught for 21 years, to the Witherspoon Institute in Princeton, New Jersey, where I begin new duties in a few days as Director of the William E. and Carol G. Simon Center on Religion and the Constitution. I hope to be back to blogging here more regularly in the near future. As Witherspoon events and publications occur that may be of interest to Bench Memos readers, I will note them here.

Breaking radio silence elsewhere–and quite literally in this case–I’ll be on Bill Bennett’s “Morning in America” radio show tomorrow morning at 7:05 a.m., talking with his producer Seth Leibsohn about the hearings on Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan.
