As mass enforcement actions threaten immigrants in the United States, what does another four years under the Trump Administration actually mean for U.S. immigration law?

Join American Constitution Society Minnesota Lawyer Chapter and the St. Thomas ACS Student Chapter for a conversation on how immigration lawyers are navigating this unpredictable landscape.

Featuring:

Virgil Wiebe, Professor, University of St. Thomas School of Law

Rebecca Scholtz, Faculty Fellow, University of St. Thomas School of Law

Rachel Scherf, Davis Immigration Lawyers, PLLC

MN CLE pending.

Join ACS and Scott Wilkens of the Knight Institute as they discuss the different threats to free speech under the current administration.

ACS is doing a private tour of the Dirksen Courthouse, which hosts the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. We will sit in on court proceedings and then meet Judge Jenkins.

Note: This is a private event.

Maybe you came to WCL to pursue a career in public interest and/or public service after graduation. Maybe you are graduating and the change in administration has impacted your post-graduation plans. Maybe you still have some time before graduation but aren't sure what is next for you. If you're looking for advice on where to go from here, please join the WCL Chapter of the American Constitution Society, the Office of Career and Professional Development, the Office for Public Interest, and the Externship Office for a panel discussion featuring WCL alumni who have been in your shoes before and how they found their way to careers in public interest and/or public service after graduation. Meet in YT17.

ACS invites members to join us for an outing to visit Judge Lindsay Jenkins's courtroom while it is in session as she hears several civil and criminal matters. After proceedings finish for the morning, Judge Jenkins will speak privately with members about the proceedings, about her background, and about any career-oriented questions students may have.

To celebrate Women's History Month, Mitchell Hamline's student chapter of ACS invites students to take a break from study to enjoy a screening of "Legally Blonde" (2001) and refreshments. This will be an in-person event hosted on Mitchell Hamline campus. It is taking place during Blended week, so both Brick and Mortar and Blended program students are available and welcome to attend.
