6 THE INSTITUTE OF BILL OF RIGHTS LAW The Institute of Bill of Rights Law is a privately funded organization primarily oriented to education and research on constitutional liberties. Its foundation in 1982 at the Marshall-Wythe School of Law recognized the prominent role of Williamsburg and the College of William and Mary in the legal education of the early leaders of the United States. The Institute derives its initial funding from the Lee Memorial Trust Fund, created in a bequest from Laura Lee of Washington, D.C. in memory of her parents, Alfred Wilson Lee and Mary I. W. Lee. Mr. Lee was founder and president of Lee Enterprises, Inc., a communications corporation consisting of newspapers, electronic media and related entities, headquartered in Davenport, Iowa. The Institute's central focus is scholarship and education of freedom of speech and of the press, with interests also in legal history, legal writing, and professional responsibility. The Institute serves both the legal and journalism professions in manners consistent with its ties to a professional school and an institution of higher education. The Institute is an academic foundation; it undertakes no lobbying and adopts no partisan political stance. Its mission is quality research and public education.
