Environmental Science and Management Faculty Publications and Presentations

Let us imagine a future world where water management is more fully integrated and supported by the science of sociohydrology and related metadisciplines. This is a vision for the future where the social, cultural, environmental, and economic values of water are explicitly considered through the lens of the science–water policy interface. The ultimate value of research will be measured by how much it supports improvements in water resources and hazards management and, in particular, completes and enriches the science–water policy interface.

"There Was Such An Array Of Circumstances Pointing To Defendant's Guilt…": Shepard V. United States And The Dying Declaration As A Legal, Social, And Political History Of People, Places, Times… And Utility, Joshua E. Kastenberg

Cleveland State Law Review

In 1933, the Court, in Shepard v. United States, limited the “dying declaration” exception to the prohibition against hearsay. Shepard has been cited over 500 times by courts of appeal, the decision appears in evidence casebooks, and scholars have challenged it as robbing the voice of victims. However, there has never been a legal history of the decision. The case arose from a criminal conviction that occurred in the last days of the “Roaring Twenties,” and the appeal transited through the courts in the first years of the Great Depression. The Court, in a unanimous decision authored by Justice …

The Nuclear Option: Preempting Power Generation, Keith Wadley

Et Cetera

Nuclear power is a topic which many feel strongly about. Unfortunately, much of the information present in public discourse is a product of fear, misinformation, and a general lack of understanding regarding what nuclear power is and does. This note seeks to clear up the murky waters of the topic by presenting some basic factual information contrary to common misconceptions while also seeking to argue, in light of this information, that Congress should, and currently has the power to, prevent states from prohibiting the use of nuclear power. Congress passed the Energy Reorganization Act of 1974 which preempts the field …

What's My Age Again? The Curious Case Of Natalia Grace And The Constitutional Void In Re-Aging Law, Lauren Gay

Et Cetera

When a child’s legal age can be judicially reclassified without rigorous procedural safeguards, the foundations of American due process erode. This article explores the alarming constitutional vacuum exposed by the case of Natalia Grace, an adopted Ukrainian child whose age was legally reclassified from eight to twenty-two without procedural safeguards such as a hearing, legal counsel, or evidentiary testing. Unlike competency or parental rights proceedings, re-aging decisions lack uniform standards, judicial transparency, or appellate recourse. This article argues that re-aging implicates fundamental liberty interests and must be governed by heightened due process protections. Drawing on comparative models from guardianship and …

White Supremacy And The Legitimation Of Violence Against Women: Analyzing The History And Impact Of Vawa, Ember Jahn

Et Cetera

This article confronts the mainstream feminist narrative that white women first addressed patriarchal violence en mass in the 1970s. Instead, this article traces back to Black women who advocated against lynching and sexual violence in the late 1800s as the first attempt to address systemic violence against women. They engaged in womanism, or the fight for Black people’s right to experience safety and discover a sense of wholeness. Their efforts led to the proliferation of numerous movements in the 1900s. Despite how crucial their efforts were to the formation of the feminist movement; many white feminists remained hostile and engaged …

Kravchenko

Cleveland State Law Review

Legal education has long relied on traditional teaching methods, such as the Socratic, case-dialogue and lecture methods, which prioritize individualism and competition over collaboration. While these methods have historically shaped legal pedagogy, they no longer adequately prepare students for the evolving demands of legal practice. This Article examines the impact of traditional teaching methods on the changing demographic of law students and offers collaborative learning as a potential solution. Specifically, this Article argues that incorporating collaborative learning and fostering a sense of community in legal education are essential for developing well-rounded, practice-ready attorneys. Through an analysis of the legal education’s …

Limits Of Contingent Convertible Bonds: Evidence From The Credit Suisse Collapse, Albert H. Choi, Jacob Gerszten, Jeffery Y. Zhang

Law & Economics Working Papers

In the aftermath of the Global Financial Crisis, regulators encouraged banks to issue contingent convertible bonds ("CoCos") to improve the issuing bank's stability. Banks around the world have issued more than $1 trillion worth of CoCos to date. Yet it is unclear whether CoCos have achieved their intended goal of improving stability. Leveraging the unexpected banking panic in March 2023, we show that issuing banks fared worse-as measured by abnormal equity returns and probabilities of default. We also examine market dynamics after 2023 and find that the largest banks have continued to issue CoCos with similar contractual terms, though issuer …
