Law stories: Teaching the First Amendment
Stephanie Caparelli, Asst Professor, LF College Law stories: Teaching the First Amendment May 21, 2025

Stephanie Caparelli is Assistant Professor of Politics and Chair of Legal Studies at Lake Forest College.  Her program will be: “Law stories: Teaching the First Amendment with seminal actors in free speech and free exercise jurisprudence."

Teaching First Amendment law in today’s political climate presents its challenges - especially as culture wars rage on around what constitutes hate speech, offensive language, the bounds of propriety in public discourse, and to what extent religious beliefs and practice are granted exemption from compliance with public policy mandates. Professor Caparelli brings to her classes the advocates and litigants in some of the most important First Amendment cases to narrate the stories and legal strategies surrounding cases to which they have argued and lent their names. She discusses how allowing her students the opportunity to engage with the voices of these cases makes it easier for her students to process and understand both sides of the challenging legal arguments in cases that have forever changed our First Amendment landscape. 

Professor Caparelli is a lawyer and former public defender who teaches courses in American public law at Lake Forest College. Her teaching interests include trial advocacy, First and Fourth Amendment jurisprudence, wrongful convictions, and reproductive justice. She is a graduate of Lake Forest College and the Chicago-Kent College of Law.

Women's Cooperative Project - Timoulilt, Morocco
Moha Bouacha, Co-President, Winnetka Rotary Club Women's Cooperative Project - Timoulilt, Morocco Jun 18, 2025

Moha Bouacha is the Co-President of the Winnetka Rotary Club and the International Host for the Global Grant that he will discuss.  Moha is from the town of Timoulilt, the location of the Grant.  Until recently he was the General Manager for Northwestern's Kellogg Business School complex.

The Women's Cooperative Project aims to empower women and girls in rural Morocco by establishing a Women's Cooperative in the village of Timoulilt, Morocco.  This initiative will help women and girls from 400 households learn valuable skills in sewing, knitting, embroidery, and clothes making.  It will also help women gain valuable skills in various aspects of business. The ultimate goal after a training period is to help them create an income and employment-generating cooperative that will help them support their families and improve the socio-economic status of the entire community.  The cooperative will also offer training in entrepreneurship, financial literacy, and cooperative management to ensure long-term sustainability.
