Professor Steven Schwinn on Adjunct Professor Linda SpringroseThe Daily Record – Linda Springrose, JD, an associate with Franklin & Prokopic, a law firm in Baltimore and an adjunct professor at the School of Law, died yesterday of an apparent embolism while recovering from a December surgery for a broken leg. Steve Schwinn, JD, an assistant professor at the School of Law, who recruited Springrose to the law school, characterized her loss as a "tragedy to the community. She would be engaging and thoughtful, dynamic, [and] approachable," he said. "And what she did, I think, especially well is bring a kind of practical approach to an otherwise somewhat sterile environment; so she was able to share with the students how things work in practice."

Professor Abraham DashThe Daily Record,and three more newspapers - In this op-ed, Abraham Dash, JD, professor at the School of Law, supports the position that the General Assembly should uphold Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr.'s veto of a House bill to transfer the Office of the Independent Juvenile Justice Monitor to the Office of the Attorney General. A transfer of this authority to the attorney general creates an argument that a "potential appearance of a conflict of interest" exists, accompanied by a loss to the autonomy and independence of the independent monitor, writes Dash.
