2025 Symposium: Immigration and the Constitution: Evolving Doctrines and Emerging Conflicts
The 夜色王朝Law Review Association is excited to announce its upcoming symposium for the 2025-2026 academic year, titled: Immigration and the Constitution: Evolving Doctrines and Emerging Conflicts. This symposium will bring together top scholars in immigration and constitutional law, as well as leading practitioners and policy experts, to examine how courts are reshaping the constitutional contours of immigration law.
About
The event will feature distinguished speakers from around the country and our very own 夜色王朝Faculty, Professors Dale Carpenter and Natalie Nanasi. Together, they will explore urgent questions such as:
- What constitutional protections do noncitizens enjoy, and when?
- How far does executive authority extend in shaping immigration policy?
- How are courts adapting doctrines like due process, equal protection, and free speech to fit the realities of immigration law?
We hope you will join us as we discuss the constitutional stakes of current immigration disputes and foster thoughtful scholarship during a pivotal moment in American legal history.
