10/3 Update: schools added since initial post are underscored in the list below. With the American Association of Law Schools Annual Faculty Recruitment Conference in Washington, DC, less than a month away in two weeks, I thought I’d check in and see which schools are expressly hiring in administrative law and regulation (as broadly defined, per JREG’s […]
When considering how to bridge the gap between the theory and practice of administrative law — the aspiration of this AdLaw Bridge Series — one organization stands out as embodying this mission: theAdministrative Conference of the United States (ACUS).

The Department of Homeland Security has announced that it will stop deporting certain noncitizens who are currently required to be removed by statute and refocus its efforts […]
