The Big Ten Law Schools present Rule of Law in 2025
The Big Ten law schools have coordinated a series of virtual panel discussions that examine the Rule of Law in 2025 after an unprecedented series of executive orders, legal interpretations, and administrative actions by the Trump administration over the last several months.
