Hello, CALL, and happy spring! I recently met with a UIC faculty member from outside of the law school to discuss his research and how he might find law review articles related to a couple of early 20th century cases.

President’s Letter
As a kid, all I ever wanted to be was CALL President. “Mom, Dad–I need the new edition of The Bluebook.” “No, I most certainly cannot come out to play. I have to practice Shepardizing. Lose this address.” “You know what, Grandma–you keep this birthday money. It won’t do me any good to get used…

As my term as CALL president comes to an end and I reflect on the past year I find myself wondering how it went by so quickly, but also how we were able to accomplish so much in only 12 months. I have no answer to how we can slow down time, but I do…
