Pace Now

The Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University community came together on Monday, October 3 to mark the beginning of the new Supreme Court term (known as “First Monday”). Haub Law professor Leslie Tenzer moderated a distinguished panel which included Haub Law Professors Bridget Crawford and Emily Gold Waldman as well as attorneys Mashayla Hays, Legal Counsel from The Lawyering Project and Kulsoon Ijaz, Staff Attorney for the Center for Reproductive Rights. The panel engaged in a thoughtful discussion on the Supreme Court’s recent decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which overturned Roe v. Wade. Additionally, they analyzed the decision itself, the future landscape of legal protections for reproductive rights, and the larger implications for the rule of law. Pace University President Marvin Krislov delivered welcome remarks, along with Congressman Jamaal Bowman (NY-16), who urged Haub Law students to be “courageous, relentless and to lead and learn with love all the while, understanding the urgency of the moment we live in.”

Beginning Thursday, October 13, through Saturday, October 15, Pace's Pleasantville Campus will be celebrating its annual Homecoming celebration, honoring alumni from both campuses.

Pace University on Monday unveiled its first dedicated gaming arena in celebration of the Athletic Department’s newest and 15th varsity sport – Esports. The announcement comes as Pace University’s Esports program enters its second official season after a successful inaugural year in spring 2022. There are more than 500 members across both campuses that are a part of Pace’s gaming community, including players on its Varsity, Academy, Club and Intramural teams. The arena was made possible with support from Burt and Hedda Hurvich.

“Not all impressions are created equal,” said Larry Chiagouris, a marketing professor at Pace University. “I’m not saying [this tactic is] not ethical or illegal, but it raises issues. If someone is trying to play a game and that’s the purpose of this interaction, they may just be eager to play the game and are not that interested in the information being shared.”
