That was the overarching advice from U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren. The Massachusetts Democrat urged graduates at the Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University to avoid what she called the obvious and expected path after commencement: a steady and dependable job at a law firm. "Law firms will pave a road from here to a nice office, in a nice building, in a nice area," she said. "But think about doing something scary."

“I wouldn’t be surprised if the justices limit Chevron, as opposed to overruling it,” said Katrina Kuh, a law professor at Pace University.
