Eugene F. Chay, author of part of the majority's opinion on the Internet as a communications
medium, is a second-year law student at American University Washington College of Law. A
1993 graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, Eugene is a member of The American
University Law Review, and is the President of the Asian Pacific American Law Students
Association at WCL. Eugene also serves as a Dean's Fellow in the law school's Legal Methods
Program, and will be employed at the Philadelphia law firm of Mesirov, Gelman, Jaffe, Cramer
and Jamieson during the summer of 1997. He firmly believes the Supreme Court's decision in
ACLU v. Reno must take exceptional care to safeguard freedom of speech on the Internet in order
to protect the extraordinary capabilities of an unprecedentedly democratic communications
medium for unconstrained, unfettered, and widespread exchange of information.
