Dean Michael Schill invites Chicago-area alumni to attend the Law School’s annual Loop Luncheon held in conjunction with Reunion Weekend.

“Obama and the Imperial Presidency”
Eric Posner, Kirkland & Ellis Professor of Law

Commentators criticized the Bush administration for expanding presidential powers, but the Obama administration has not tried to curtail them, nor has Congress or the courts.  In this talk, Professor Posner will trace the evolution of the imperial presidency, and explain why the powerful executive has become entrenched in the U.S. system of government.
