Angelica Guevara ABLENESS AS PROPERTY 97 Denver Law Review Forum 1 (June 11, 2020) The article puts forth the need for gatekeepers to address ableness as property, instead of focusing on the ability/disability of an individual. Not addressing such a property interest leads courts and academic institutions to make damaging and varying decisions as seen in two medical school cases. By focusing on the property interest in ableness,... 2020

The issue of the extent to which property should be... 2020

Heather R. Abraham FAIR HOUSING'S THIRD ACT: AMERICAN TRAGEDY OR TRIUMPH? 39 Yale Law and Policy Review 1 (Fall, 2020) Fifty-two years ago, Congress enacted a one-of-a-kind civil rights directive.

Priya S. Gupta GLOBALIZING PROPERTY 41 University of Pennsylvania Journal of International Law 611 (Spring, 2020) Property is more than domestic. It is international, transnational, and global.
