Event with Reggie Greer from the State Department to discuss pathways to public service and the state department.

ACS has partnered with Georgia State's Environmental Law Society to present Natural Disasters and the Role of FEMA. Our panelists will discuss the effects of the recent hurricanes and FEMA's role in rebuilding the affected communities. We will specifically discuss the effects of Hurricane Helene, Milton, and Michael.

Don't miss an insightful educational panel, "The Domino Effect: Practicing Law and Medicine Post-Dobbs," on November 4, 2024, from 12 to 1 p.m. in Rooms 121, 122, and 124 at Creighton Law School. Co-hosted by Creighton Law ACS, this event features a distinguished panel of attorneys and a physician who will explore the significant changes in the legal and medical landscape following the landmark decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization. Rather than a debate, this forum encourages a thoughtful discussion, with students invited to submit questions in advance for a moderator-led Q&A session. This is a unique opportunity to understand the far-reaching implications of recent legal rulings on our future careers in law and medicine. Open to the Creighton Law, Medical, undergraduate, and local communities, we encourage everyone to attend and deepen your understanding of these critical issues.

This event will be co-hosted by the Creighton Law American Constitution Society, Women's Law Student Association, Health Law Student Association, and a Creighton University Medical School student organization (Justice in Medicine and OBGYN Interest Group). The event will focus on the issues and complexities of emergency medical care in states with restrictive abortion care access (for example, https://www.propublica.org/article/georgia-abortion-ban-amber-thurman-death).
