As I blogged about earlier this week, the Administrative Conference of the United States, along with George Mason University’s C. Boyden Gray Center for the Study of the Administrative State and the Center for Progressive Reform, are hosting a four-part, virtual Symposium on Federal Agency Adjudication this month. On Tuesday, August 11th, from 2:00-3:30PM, I’ll be participating on the panel on managing federal agency adjudication programs. It should be a fascinating discussion.

Here are the details from the ACUS website:
