Whether and to what extent a constitutional right to privacy exists in the United States has been much debated but
never more so than today after the US Supreme Court reversed the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision last June which
had provided a constitutionally protected right to have an abortion rooted in the right to privacy.

After the Court's reversal of Roe, the continued vitality of a right to privacy under the US Constitution, particularly
with regard to the government's regulation of or interference with intimate aspects of one's life, is being debated
today in the US. This course examines the evolution of the right to privacy as a matter of US constitutional law and
its continued vitality today in providing constitutional protections in the US for certain intimate decisions such as
interracial marriage, use of contraceptives, same sex consensual conduct, and same sex marriage.

The course will be taught by Joseph Tringali, who teaches a course on Sexuality, Gender Identity and the Law at
the University of Miami School of Law, and has submitted amicus briefs to the US Supreme Court in cases in
which the Court held there was a constitutional right to engage in consensual same sex conduct as well as same
sex marriage.
