Senator Kyl to speak on terrorism at law school

Republican Sen. Kyl will speak Monday about his service on the Senate Judiciary Committee and his leadership as chair of the Judiciary Subcommittee on Terrorism, Technology and Homeland Security. His is the first of a lecture series on "Arizona Law Graduates Shaping National Law and Policy."

Kyl was elected to the U.S. Senate from Arizona in 1994 and re-elected in 2000. Prior to joining the Senate, Kyl served four terms in the House of Representatives. He graduated from the James E. Rogers College of Law in 1966, having served as editor in chief of the Arizona Law Review.

"Our students really benefit from our close connections with alumni law and policymakers. Senator Kyl's experience is something we want to share with students," said Toni M. Massaro, dean of the college of law.

The lecture is scheduled for 4 p.m. Monday in Ares Auditorium at the College of Law building. It is free and open to the public.
