US Government (Wednesday, April 5, 4th period)

"Today we talk about important Supreme Court cases," Josh said, looking up from his notes. "And before you ask, yes, you'll need to memorize them. Why? Quiz next Wednesday--it'll cover everything about both the legislative and judicial branches of the federal government." He raised an eyebrow. "And class is cancelled on Friday--I have to head to the White House for a thing. So you have warning and a lot of time to study. I'm going to be unhappy if you can't can me the difference between Marbury v. Madison and Plessy v. Ferguson."

Josh then lectured extensively on landmark Supreme Court cases, starting with Marbury v. Madison and McCulloch v. Maryland, touching on Dred Scott and Plessy v. Ferguson before covering Brown v. Board of Education, Gideon v. Wainwright, Miranda v. Arizona, Roe v. Wade, Nixon v. US, and ending with Bush v. Gore.
