The Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University is pleased to announce that Gregory Antill, a criminal law and philosophy scholar, will join the faculty as an Assistant Professor of Law beginning in Fall 2025. Professor Antill will teach courses in criminal law and tort law while also supervising student scholarship and research projects in the advanced legal writing seminar.

Professor Antill is currently an Academic Fellow and Lecturer in Law at Columbia Law School. He has also held previous academic appointments at Yale University, Pomona College, and Claremont McKenna College. His primary teaching and research interests include criminal law, tort law, and evidence, where he applies recent advances in philosophy and cognitive science to traditional legal questions about mens rea, culpability, causation, and expert testimony.

“Professor Antill brings an extremely unique perspective to the Haub Law community in his focus on and background in both law and philosophy,” said Dean Horace E. Anderson, Jr. “His prior studies and degrees allow him an innate ability to encourage his students to examine the law from both a practical and theoretical standpoint. We look forward to Professor Antill joining the Haub Law community.”

“Haub Law has a long history of embracing both intellectual and educational excellence in the study of law,” said Professor Antill. “I look forward to furthering my research interests and contributing to the innovative academic community that makes up Haub Law.”

Professor Antill’s scholarship has been published or is forthcoming in The Yale Law Journal, The California Law Review, and The University of Chicago Law Review, among other publications. He holds a JD from Yale Law School and a PhD in Philosophy from UCLA, where he was an Andrew W. Mellon Fellow in Humanistic Studies. During his time at Yale Law School, he was an editor on the Yale Law Journal and editor-in-chief of the Yale Journal of Law & The Humanities.

Haub Law recently announced the expansion of its faculty with the additions of Professor Lauren Roth, a health law and business law scholar, and Professor Kate Skolnick, a seasoned public defender and criminal law scholar. The Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University is proud to have more than 130 legal experts as members of its full-time and adjunct faculty. Faculty members are lawyers with outstanding academic credentials and extensive legal experience. They are student-centered educators who bring their diverse practice experience to the classroom. Through either prior or ongoing active careers as attorneys—whether as litigators, counselors, regulators, legal reformers, policymakers, judges, clerks, or counselors—our faculty have unique perspectives informed by their work in multiple fields of law in the private and public sectors.
