Law Review Symposium

"Attacking and Defending the Administrative State"

Friday, Oct. 20 | 9 a.m.-2:15 p.m.
Law Center, McQuade Law Auditorium

From environmental regulations to student loan forgiveness, recent Supreme Court cases hinged on the Court’s interpretations of the limits of agency power. The symposium panelists will explore the changing contours of the federal administrative apparatus due to action by the President, Congress, and the Supreme Court. The event will feature panels on 1) The Major Questions Doctrine; 2) The Unitary Executive; and 3) Agency Expertise. The symposium intends to educate the public on how the empowerment or disempowerment of government agencies affects all of us. 

The symposium is approved by the Ohio Supreme Court for 3 hours of CLE credit.
