    If I may toot my own horn briefly on this, I discuss this in my
recent Stan. L. Rev. piece on the subject,
http://www.law.ucla.edu/volokh/association.pdf ("Freedom of Expressive
Association and Government Subsidies").

	Kevin, the one that really jumps out at me is the question of
whether universities have to recognize religious student groups or if
they can refuse to recognize them or force them not to discriminate on
the basis of religion or sexual orientation. The 9th circuit ruled that
they did not have to recognize them in CLS v Hastings, but the 7th
circuit ruled that they do in CLS v Southern Illinois. And these cases
are multiplying like mad. The Supreme Court needs to clear that one up.

	List members:  If I may, I would like to enlist the expertise on
this list to help me identify new issues in religious liberty that you
believe are on the horizon, or perhaps are already the subject of
litigation.  I don't mean the re-fighting of issues like school prayer,
or whether a particular display on public property is sufficiently
secular in character.  Though if you are aware of an issue or case that
has the potential to lead to the overturning of what seems to be
established precedent, or to expand or narrow precedent, I'm interested
in that too.  (No need to mention the Hein case currently before the
Supreme Court.)

	 

	Thanks.
