On May 9, 2024, CCFD hosted a highly successful panel of experts to explore how rigorously applied neutral and judicially manageable district design standards can help drive out extreme partisan maneuvering and gerrymandering. Distinguished guests included Pennsylvania State Supreme Court Justice David N. Wecht, North Carolina State Supreme Court Justice Anita S. Earls, Ben Geffen, Esq. of the Public Interest Law Center, Harvard Prof. Ruth Greenwood, Carnegie Mellon Prof. Emeritus John F. Nagle, and Princeton Gerrymandering Project Director, Sam Wang. A recording of the discussion and associated written materials are now available online from the Pennsylvania Bar Institute. 

The upcoming Wisconsin course is scheduled for June 24, 2025 in hybrid format, and will be entitled “An End to Gerrymandering: Do There Exist Neutral Standards to Draw and Judge Electoral Maps?” The course features Princeton Gerrymandering Project Director Prof. Sam Wang, Harvard Prof. Nicholas Stephanopoulos,  UChicago PhD Zachariah Sippy, Douglas Poland, Esq., Misha Tseytlin, Esq., Carnegie Mellon Prof. John Nagle, TJ Edwards, Esq., Anne Hanna (CCFD), Howard Wiener, Esq.
