St. Albans School of Public Service Supreme Court is in Session!

Today the St. Albans School of Public Service 2014 students are arguing a Supreme Court case from the current term: the Hobby Lobby case, which involves the issue of whether a small corporation can be exempt on religious grounds from the Affordable Healthcare Act's mandate that birth control be available under health care plans.  The "real" case has not yet been decided by the U.S. Supreme Court case (it should come out any day), so we are all eager to see what the "St. Albans Supreme Court" will decide.
