We hope to see many of you in November when we celebrate 225 years of Old College (see page 6 for more details). This is an exciting time, with work starting on our redevelopment in the New Year. Alas, ambitious refurbishment does not come without some practical inconvenience and I am full of praise for our support staff who are working so hard to ensure life for our current students and academic staff will not be disrupted by the building work. I am confident that we can minimize those disruptions and continue to develop and thrive as a School. I am really grateful to all concerned for making it so. I also want to take this opportunity to welcome our new academic staff this semester. Dr Paolo Cavaliere joins us as the new Lecturer in Digital Media/IT Law. Paolo joins us from the Centre for Socio-Legal Studies at the University of Oxford.

  • Indianapolis LAW Alumni Magazine
    SUMMER 2011 IU Indianapolis LAW Alumni Magazine The IMPACT Campaign: Your Chance to Make a Difference for the Law School INDIANA UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF LAW – INDIANAPOLIS Message from the Dean As I comPLete my fouRth yeAR As DeAn, I am struck by what a marvelous law school we have, how far it has come in its brief history with a full-time day program, and the tremendous impact it and its more than 10,000 alumni have on Indiana and beyond. We should all be extremely proud. At the same time, however, I am also struck by the fact that as good as the school is, there is still much we need to do to make it the very best it can be. for this reason, we are embarking on an ambitious capital campaign, the success of which is vital to the school’s ability, in an increasingly competitive environment, to continue producing great lawyers, judges, and leaders. this issue of the magazine focuses on this campaign and, consistent with our recently adopted strategic plan, on the areas in which resources raised will be invested—faculty, student scholarships, nationally prominent programs and skills training/experiential learning. While the school is generally ranked highly among all u.s. law schools, its funding is near the bottom. our direct expenditures per student last year ranked 141st out of 198 and our financial aid per student budget was in the bottom quartile. our resources are by far the lowest of all Big ten law schools. If we can provide an excellent education for students with this small amount of funding, consider what we could do if we had sufficient dollars to do what most other law schools can do already—such as fund endowed faculty chairs, or offer core classes with fewer than 100 students in the classroom.

  • Community-Led Responses to COVID-19 Are a Matter of Urgency in Syria, Write Lisa Boden, Ann-Christin Wagner, Shaher Abdullateef and Anas Al Kaddour
    How do we care about care homes, asks Niamh Woodier Lloyd Rees, when discussing Australian modern art, argued that ‘the universal element in art, I feel, has often come from an intense localism’ (Rees in Butler & Donaldson 2015, 142). This quote has stayed with me since my Art History degree: Lloyd Rees was originally referring to the conflict between indigenous and Western symbolic vocabularies in the increasingly international trope of Australian modern art in 1930s Sydney. Although this quote is far from my life as a part-time GP receptionist, part-time Masters student in Global Health Policy in Scotland, the importance of ‘the local’ has been re-emphasised during the coronavirus pandemic. Working in the setting of community health has taught me that the universal element in healthcare often comes from intensely local care: care that is personalized, close to home and promotes both health and social well-being. The importance of local care has become central to the devastating impact of coronavirus in elderly populations, is an ongoing topical issue of care homes (Observer Reporters, 2020) and is changing what care will become. The UK population is ageing, and our health policy is adapting to suit the needs of this demographic. It is predicted that in 2066, 26% of the population will be 65 or older, compared to 18% in 2016 (ONS, 2018). Much of the integrated care that allows older people to be cared for at home was only established 20 years ago. In 2000 the NHS Reform Plan (Department of Health, 2000) introduced a new tier of services called ‘intermediate care’ to facilitate health and social care to older adults living in the community with the understanding that ‘older people have better health outcomes when they receive treatment closer to home’ (British Geriatrics Society 2019).

  • Alumni Magazine & Dean's Report
    SUMMER 2010 IU Indianapolis LAW Alumni Magazine & Dean’s Report INDIANA UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF LAW – INDIANAPOLIS Message from the Dean WE SHOUld All BE VERY prOUD OF OUR LAW SCHOOL. For decades it has been graduating hundreds of outstanding lawyers who have gone on to become not only great leaders in the legal profession, but great leaders in government and business. Just in the State of Indiana, over half the licensed lawyers are our graduates, as are over 40% of the judges, at least 78 corporate or non-profit CEOs, and numerous legislators and government officials. Yet despite the enormous contributions that the law school and its alumni make to our state and nation, for too long it has operated largely unrecognized and often underappreciated. If the law school is to receive the recognition and support essential to its ability to continue being the great asset it has always been to Indiana and beyond, it must not be the best kept secret in American legal education. It is time that the school not only do an outstanding job of attracting and educating top legal talent, but that it also do an outstanding job of letting the world know it. In the past couple of years, we have undertaken to raise the profile and reputation of the law school in various ways. One way has been to bring to the school prominent speakers and events that will make Hoosiers and others around the country take notice of the quality and respect this school has. One such speaker is featured in this issue—Chief Justice John G.
