Nashville Thursday received its first taste of the Occupy Wall Street movement as demonstrators took to Legislative Plaza and Cen- tennial park to stand in solidarity with the New York City protesters. Occupy Wall Street, a protest movement targeting large finan- cial institutions in New York City’s financial district, is entering its fourth week of demonstrations.

This year, you were invited to be the speaker for 7th annual Con- stitution Day event, and talked about the implications of the consti- Tama tution on alcohol policy. Can you summarize what your talk was about, and why you chose to talk about it? My topic stemmed from the research I’ve done at the Federal Trade Commission and a research report about the Supreme Court decision in 2005 that focused on interstate wine sales. I’ve been actively involved in separate debates about interstate sales of alcohol, and the way this was or was not used constitutionally un- der the commerce clause. Given the way trade has been radically developing over the past ten years, I thought this was a relevant, interesting, and also fun issue for students to understand, that hopefully gives them a informed about the current alcohol policy in The United States. I don’t have a strong opinion about the either side, but I think I can demonstrate pretty clearly that a lot of the restrictions that are in place that limit inter- state or intrastate sales of alcohol have led to a lot of broader economic consequences that are generally bad.

D o you think that the average student on campus is politically engaged? I’ve only been at Vanderbilt for a year now, but overall, I think Vanderbilt students are a really bright and motivated group of students who are presented with a lot of opportunities to get involved in a variety of political topics. From my work here, I’ve seen that does a lot to make sure that stu- dents are being as well educated in the classroom as they are outside it, and I think that’s a really good environment for self-development. ★
