This is terrific news! Liz Magill is a great choice to lead Georgetown Law.

Regarding the controversy—Elise Stefanik ambushed Magill at that hearing with the evident goal of smearing her as an antisemite, which she is not (obviously). UPenn's loss is our gain.

Everything Rosa said! This is simply wonderful news for our law school. (And major thanks, too, to Josh Teitelbaum for being such a fantastic interim dean.)

Opinion | The military wouldn’t save us from President Trump’s illegal orders The White House could manipulate the law to get what it wants.

This from @rosabrooks.bsky.social is as true today as it was when it was published in 2016.
