The Lindsay and Matt Moroun Religious Liberty Clinic and the St. Thomas More Society co-hosted a talk by Professor John Greil on integrating the Catholic tradition's corporal works of mercy into legal practice. Professor Greil co-teaches the Law and Religion Clinic at University of Texas at Austin School of Law, where he supervises student-led representations of clients in need of litigation, transaction, and consulting services.
 
Professor Greil discussed the ways in which he has served those in material need through his legal services, including his pro bono work while in private practice at a large law firm. Students had the opportunity to seek Professor Greil's advice on integrating corporal works of mercy across a variety of legal matters beyond religious freedom work.
