Constitution Day

The College of Behavioral & Social Sciences invites you to attend its annual Constitution Day. This year's program, entitled "Freedom for You, Constraints for Us: How the Constitution Protects Your Liberty," will feature the Hon. Trevor N. McFadden, a federal judge on the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.

Judge McFadden earned a B.A. from Wheaton College (IL.) and a J.D. from the University of Virginia School of Law. He clerked for Judge Steven Colloton, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, and then joined the U.S. Department of Justice, where he served as Counsel to the Deputy Attorney General and as Assistant U.S. Attorney in the District of Columbia. Judge McFadden became a partner at Baker & McKenzie in Washington, DC, where he focused on white collar investigations. After four years in private practice, he returned to the Justice Department, where he was Deputy Assistant Attorney General and acted as the second-in-command of the Criminal Division. Judge McFadden also has extensive experience in law enforcement as an officer with the Fairfax County, VA, Police Department and as a deputy sheriff in Madison County, VA.
