Late last month, about 150 different employers sent recruiters and staffed tables at the biggest job fair in Pace University’s history.
There were a lot of reasons for the enormous turnout. Part of it is simple supply and demand. Even as our economy begins to slow, there are far more job openings than available workers, and employers are desperate to hire. Part of it is an eagerness to once again connect in person. This was the first major job fair in more than three years at Pace, since before the onset of the pandemic. And part of it is because of the educational model we embrace here. We combine world-class academics with hands-on, experiential learning that’s focused on producing graduates ready to hit the ground running in their careers—which makes our graduates very attractive to employers.

Professor Bennett Gershman writes about “The Tragic Case of Crosley Green” for Law & Crime. Green spent 31 years in prison before he was granted release in 2021 by a federal judge. Now, following two years of freedom with his family, the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals has reversed the ruling and ordered him back to prison next week. Professor Gershman recounts this unsettling case, examining the constitutional and ethical duties of the prosecutor who failed to disclose information resulting in the release, and questioning the “heart” of the American justice system.
Legal Theory Blog reports Professor Katrina Fisher Kuh posted an article on “Can the Constitution Save the Planet?”
Here is the abstract: The Constitution as presently worded, interpreted, and applied is obstructing the development of a robust societal response to climate change, in part by failing adequately to protect healthy democratic processes and advance real social justice.
