Abstract
One of the nation's most prominent African-American judges will urge new lawyers to elevate public discourse beyond talk-radio shouting and become engaged in "the passions of the times" at the University of Dayton's School of Law commencement on Saturday. "It was Oliver Wendell Holmes who said that a person who is not involved in the passions, the actions of his times, will have been deemed not to have lived," said Nathaniel R. Jones, a judge in the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati for nearly two decades. "Lawyers need to be involved in the actions, the passions of our times."
