The focus of the symposium is on curriculum development at the Collegiate and High School levels. The symposium will provide an interdisciplinary forum where three instructors who teach at the Graduate, Undergraduate and High School levels will present their articles that were published in volume 2 of the Hawaiian Journal of Law & Politics. Following their presentations there will be a panel discussion on how they each have taught courses at the Collegiate and High School levels regarding Hawai`i as an independent and sovereign State and the sources they use. Audience participation is encouraged.
