The right to resist: sanctuary cities & states’ rights

The following article is about Professor Kevin Fandl and his research. Last year, Professor Fandl passed away from health complications.

Zoned out: The battle between business and land regulation

When a business is unable to open in a certain location, it’s not uncommon to anecdotally hear things like, “They wanted to open there, but Walmart blocked them” or “The town just did not want another supermarket.” But what exactly does that mean? And, perhaps more importantly, is there any merit to these types of […]

“Risk is the real-world concern that knits the department together”

Jeffrey Boles, chair of the Department of Risk, Actuarial Science and Legal Studies, shares how this new department offers a unique opportunity for a 360-degree perspective of business.  Recently, the Departments of Legal Studies and Risk, Insurance and Healthcare Management came together to form the Department of Risk, Actuarial Science and Legal Studies. Positioning itself […]

Uplifting for success: Temple First’s resources for first-generation students

As a first-generation college student, I am deeply aware of the hidden challenges that emerge throughout the higher education experience. Without family to call and ask about their experiences with school, the importance of developing a network of peers and advisors is critical to closing the financial knowledge and resource gap that troubles so many […]

The right to rent: reforming the retail sector, one brick at a time

“This is one of those articles that came about as I was walking around South Street,” says William Bunting, assistant professor of legal studies at the Fox School. While walking down South Street recently, Bunting encountered a number of empty storefronts. Always the researcher, he wondered why retail vacancies were on the rise—especially in increasingly […]

What is Big Brother watching?

Earlier this year, in the immediate wake of the storming of the United States Capitol, only a handful of arrests were made. Yet, in the weeks that followed, there were more than 400 additional people charged, and hundreds more are still under investigation.  According to Samuel Hodge Jr., we can thank facial recognition software for […]

#MeToo Bots in the workplace

The #MeToo movement shined a light on sexual harassment in the workplace, resulting in powerful individuals throughout every industry being exposed and convicted publicly. But the movement has not necessarily helped people understand that two behaviors—being aggressive and physical assault—are not the only unlawful actions when it comes to mistreatment in the workplace.  Across the […]

Advancing DEI in the field of law

“When people say, ‘Let’s move the needle of DEI,’ my question is, ‘Which dial are we looking at?’”  That’s how Angela Winfield, the newly appointed chief diversity officer for the Law School Admission Council, views the work of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). In September, the Fox School’s Department of Legal Studies hosted Winfield and […]

Remembering the legacy of Professor Kevin Fandl

Kevin Fandl’s passion for his research and students was palpable.  He dedicated himself to serving students, advancing legal and international business scholarship, and sharing his talents for the betterment of others, both near and far. And he did so while wearing many hats: as associate professor of legal studies and strategic global management, Irwin Gross […]

On the ‘business of Pride’

Corporate sponsorship of Pride Month, often seen in the form of rainbow logos or Pride-themed merchandise, is an aspect of the monthly celebration that has caught the attention of many in recent years—for better or worse.

To discuss the benefits, opportunities and challenges of corporate-sponsored Pride, we spoke to Jeffrey Boles, associate professor and chair of the Legal Studies Department at the Fox School of Business.

Why Law needed to meet business during the pandemic

“We are a society that has been structured from top to bottom by race. You don’t get beyond that by deciding not to talk about it anymore. It will always come back; it will always reassert itself over and over again.” Kimberle Williams Crenshaw, UCLA Law Professor In February, the Department of Legal Studies at […]

ERA to USA: Protecting a Fragile Future

“The people have a right to clean air, pure water, and to the preservation of the national, scenic, historic and aesthetic values of the environment.

As trustee of these resources, the Commonwealth shall conserve and maintain them […]
