UPCOMING EVENTS

Is There A Border Crisis? 

Wednesday, February 18 | 6 p.m.
Driscoll Auditorium, room 132

Since America’s founding, its story has been defined by migration. Today, our country's system of accepting, rejecting and deporting newcomers is vastly different from the days of its first immigration laws. What’s changed—and what hasn’t?

On Wednesday, Feb. 18 at 6 p.m., join us for a discussion in Driscoll Auditorium, room 132, on the state of immigration in the United States.

This conversation will be moderated by Villanova Law professor and Director of the Center for Asylum, Refugee, and Emigrant Services Daniel Cortes. Panelists include Hardeep Dhillon, PhD, University of Pennsylvania; Mary Mendoza, PhD, Penn State University; and Lori Nessel, JD, Seton Hall Law School. 

This event is free and open to the public. Register here.
