Welcome to the third edition of The Academic Advisor – an electronic newsletter focused on teaching law insights. As the fall semester begins, your school or campus will undoubtedly be buzzing with orientations, move-ins, training, and student activities. I wish you a smooth start to the school year. We also hope that this publication can provide a relevant and useful source of information as you navigate the ongoing changes in education law.

New Guidance from the U.S. Department of Education to Support Students with Disabilities in the Student Discipline Process. A college affirmative action case pending review by the U.S. Supreme Court.
