Professor Linus Chan Delivers Appointment Lecture
Professor Linus Chan, James H. Binger Clinical Professor of Law, delivered his appointment lecture on, “Citizenship Exceptionalism: How the Deportation Power Has Reduced Constitutional Protection for Everyone” earlier this week. In his lecture, he discussed how the growing reality of immigration detention and deportation has transformed our understanding of constitutional due process and equal protection away from "personhood" into something where citizenship becomes all too relevant. He also discussed how centering this conversation on citizenship weakens the Constitution for everyone, citizen and non-citizen alike.
