The President's Commonsense Executive Actions on Immigration The President’s Commonsense Executive Actions on Immigration Are Lawful For the last half century, presidents of both parties have used their authority to set priorities in enforcing our immigration laws. That legal authority has been recognized by the Supreme Court, Congress, the Department of Justice, legal scholars, mayors, and top law enforcement officials from across the nation. The organizations and individuals below have all made clear that the President’s executive actions on immigration fall well within his authority.

    GRADUATE REPORT Serving Non-Profits Faculty News Around Campus Profiles Alumni Awards Dinner Giving Back Class Notes Spring/Summer 2011 etter from the Dean Dear Graduates: L Summer session is going full tilt and the beautiful May morning on which Attorney General Jepsen addressed the Class of 2011 has made way for a glorious July 4 weekend. I am grateful for the invigorating effect of New England’s change of seasons as we begin planning a new school year. There is much work to do. Legal educators everywhere are facing a changing profession in which entry level jobs are growing scarce, and in which greater rewards are going to smaller numbers of lawyers. Conceptual dexterity and analytical rigor, long the hallmarks of our craft, are no longer sufficient to guarantee success. Law schools must adapt our curricula accordingly. Professor Paul Chill will lead a review of our program to determine what reforms might best fit our students’ objectives. We welcome your ideas. Harsh economics have also driven down law school applications by roughly 11% nationally. We have been hit by a decline in the number of candidates for our evening program. Building a class from a smaller pool puts enormous pressure on our entering statistics and further harms our U.S. News ranking, even as our academic program continues to soar. Professor Peter Lindseth will lead a committee considering ways to respond to this changing market. As we prepare for the future, there is much to celebrate about the fabulous year just past. The University attracted Susan Herbst, a warm, thoughtful, energetic, and articulate academic administrator to serve as its first woman president.

Matthew Boyle Abigail Fisher Williamson A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Arts with Honors in Public Policy and Law Acknowledgements I would like to thank everyone who helped me bring this thesis into fruition. Naturally Professor Williamson deserves the highest praise for basically keeping this ship afloat throughout the entire process. She was instrumental in directing me to resources that would become critical to my research, keeping me on track and figuring out the best method for me to approach this thesis. I would also like to thank the staff in the Watkinson archives room and at the Hartford History Center in Hartford Public Library. When I first approached them I only had a vague notion of what sort of archival resources I wanted. Both were incredibly helpful and without them I would never have found the plans of development so central to my thesis.
