The Classical Liberal Roundtable (CLR) is a First Amendment Forum at the University of Virginia. It is both a political discussion group and a social group. It's nonpartisan, with the aim of promoting interesting and intelligent discussion among students and increasing the impact and quality of their thought.
We have weekly Sunday meetings and regular dinner parties. The Sunday meetings are held in Pavilion 8 on the East Lawn. Topics for the meeting will be collected in the preceding week through this blog, and we spend a reasonable amount of time on each topic before moving on. The Sunday meetings will require little preparation on part of the members, but via the blog, interested members can post background information.
CLR's Sunday meetings are 3PM in Pavilion VIII (Room 103). Those interested in CLR should stop by. If you want more information about us, contact UVA email ID ph4t or check us out at the student activities fair.
