For most of the second half of 20th century, the Supreme Court has wrestled with finding a balance between the Free Exercise of religion and the Establishment Clause, offering several tests to test the limits of permissible accommodation without the undue appearance of government endorsement. Among those tests has been a little-thing called the “play in the joints,” famously introduced in Walz v. Tax Commissioner of New York (1970). In this episode, I explore this concept with Falco Anthony Muscante II, whose paper in the Ave Marie Law Review is called “Play in the Joints” Among the Religion Clauses: Rebuilding the Strong Joints the Framers Formed. In our conversation, we discuss the history of the religious clause and what the framers intended, how the concept emerged and became weaponized in Locke v. Davey (2003), why the Court has latched on to the idea of state neutrality and how that impacts religion, and more. Falco Anthony Muscante II earned his J.D. in 2023 from the Duquesne University School of Law, where he served on the executive boards for the Law Review and Appellate Moot Court Board. He is an alumnus of Grove City College, where he graduated summa cum laude with a B.S. Management, minor in Pre-Law, and concentration in Human Resources. Falco is a litigation associate at a big law firm in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, soon headed to clerk for the Third Circuit. Cross & Gavel is a production of CHRISTIAN LEGAL SOCIETY.

“Hey Cory, what do you do?” I am a comedian, pharmacist, author, and speaker. With the eye for detail of a pharmacist and the mind of a comedian, I am out to help others challenge the conventions and PREscriptions holding them back while adapting to the unknown and living in the moment. All while getting some laughs along the way.   Rewind to 2013, two years into my pharmacy career and there I was, struggling to adapt to the unscripted world of pharmacy and healthcare.  ​ On paper I had checked all of the boxes: perfect grades, residency, board certifications. But then I realized something was missing - the ability to create meaningful connections in the moment with those I cared for, and the ability to adapt and remain flexible. ​ 2013 was the year I went to my first improv class and two simple words changed everything for me: "Yes, and."   _____________   The Pennsylvania Pharmacists Care Network (PPCN) is pleased to announce that Dr. Rob Maher has been selected to serve as its new President and Chief Operating Officer (COO).

Through use of key performance indicators (KPIs), careful workflow considerations and by leaning into technology, Dr. Maher was able to position Klingensmith's to serve their communities while growing new business revenue.   In addition to his practice experience, Dr. Maher has spent the past 25 years serving as a faculty member and administrative pharmacist at the Duquesne University School of Pharmacy. During this time, Dr. Maher has taught and inspired countless student pharmacists through didactic courses related to the fundamentals of pharmacy practice management, implementation of pharmacy services and business planning/entrepreneurship.   Dr. Maher earned both his B.S. in Pharmacy ('93) and PharmD from the University of Pittsburgh ('97). In 1998, Dr Maher completed a Geriatric pharmacy specialized residency at Duke University's Center for the Study of Aging and the Durham Veteran's Affairs Geriatric Research Education Center. Growing up, Dr. Rob Maher worked in his family's community pharmacy in Patton, Pa. (Cambria County) that his father owned and operated for 47 years. In 2021, the business was sold to another independent pharmacy owner. Dr. Maher also was a pharmacy owner partner for Mission Pharmacy Services, a long-term care pharmacy.   Dr. Maher will be taking over for Dr. Brandon Antinopoulos, the network's first President and COO.

Each month, our Carrier Connections program features a different X-linked condition with the goal to increase awareness and education of X-linked conditions and how they impact females. This month, we are featuring Fragile X syndrome. Fragile X syndrome is a heritable X-linked disorder caused by an abnormality in the FMR1 gene. This gene makes the protein, FMRP, which plays a critical role in the development of nerve cells and the production of other cellular proteins. An issue in this FMR1 gene causes an absence or severe deficiency of the FMRP protein, resulting in a range of developmental problems and distinctive physical features. It typically results from a specific mutation, or alteration of DNA, that causes a CGG base repeat to occur over 200 times in the damaged FMR1 gene. Molecular genetic testing can be used to diagnose this condition by identifying the 200 CGG repeats in the FMR1 gene. Women with a fragile X premutation, or 55 to 200 repeats of the FMR1 gene, have an increased risk of having a child with fragile X syndrome.  Additionally, female fragile X premutation carriers may experience menstrual and menopausal abnormalities, infertility, diminished ovarian reserve, and chronic hypoestrogenism. Such chronic hypoestrogenism has been associated with impaired bone health and an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Furthermore, female carriers of a fragile X premutation have been found to have neuropsychiatric issues including neuropathy, increased anxiety and depression, and tremor/ataxia syndrome. Some studies have also associated thyroid abnormalities and hypertension to fragile X syndrome in women.  Today, we are joined by Rebecca Kronk, PhD, MSN, CRNP, ANEF, FAAN, CNE. Dr. Rebecca Kronk joined Duquesne University School of Nursing as an Assistant Professor in August 2010, earned tenure in 2016 and was promoted to Full Professor in 2022. She is a board certified pediatric nurse practitioner. Dr. Kronk earned her MSN from the University of Pittsburgh School of Nursing and a PhD in Applied Development Psychology at the University of Pittsburgh, School of Education. Dr. Kronk was a fellow in the Maternal and Child Health Training program providing leadership and education in neurodevelopmental disabilities and autism (LEND) at the University of Pittsburgh. Dr. Kronk has been in the field of pediatric nursing for over 40 years and she is experienced in helping children and families with a range of developmental issues. She has enjoyed combining clinical work with teaching and research. The theoretical framework of her research has been based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health published by the World Health Organization. Dr. Kronk has conducted several research studies on the sleep patterns of children with Fragile X syndrome and developmental functioning of children in the FXS gray zone alleles. Her ongoing research has focused on undergraduate educational interventions to promote learning in genetics and caring for people with disabilities.

This week's question is: How can Coaches create an instructional practice based on the ISTE Standards for Educators? Weekly Topic The ISTE Certified Educator Program Digital Learning Standards & Frameworks ISTE Standards ISTE Standards for Educators Personal Standards 2.1 Learner 2.2 Leader 2.2 Citizen Pedagogy Standards 2.4 Collaborator 2.5 Designer 2.6 Facilitator Reflection Standard 2.7 Analyst ISTE Standards for Students ISTE Standards for Building Leaders ISTE Standards for Coaches 4.1 Change Agent 4.2 Connected Learner 4.3 Collaborator 4.4 Learning Designer 4.5 Professional Learning Facilitator 4.6 Data-Driven Decision-Maker 4.7 Digital Citizen Advocate School Leader Digital Learning Guide Future Ready How do we support these standards in our buildings and classrooms? Ask staff members what they would like to see changed or update Figure out then how to focus on something new that is based on a standard to help them see what the benefits are and how they can focus on one of the standards. Use a survey to determine where the staff is and what topics they might want to focus on. (How do you get buy-in with your staff) Should coaches openly be promoting them, or have them in the back of our minds as we are working with staff members? How can we course correct if/when we find that our building leaders areas are not aimed at meeting the digital learning standards? Should these standards be included in curricular documents?

Welcome back to America's leading higher education law podcast, EdUp Legal - part of the EdUp Experience Podcast Network! In this episode, we hear from Dean and Professor April M. Barton, Duquesne University School of Law. Dean Barton shares with us her passion for a topic she believes is critical for law students, leadership development, and the Leadership Fellows Program started during her tenure that includes 1L Dean Scholars, the leadership of registered student organizations, and other students who self-nominate or are nominated. She describes initial steps to incorporate leadership development into the curriculum for all students, through the required Professional Responsibility course, and how leadership is approached as a mindset, not the result of title or hierarchy. Dean Barton recounts the origin of Duquesne, the only Catholic Spiritan institution in the world, one that was originally created to educate immigrants. Dean Barton explains that the future of Duquesne School of Law is focused on the three pillars of interdisciplinary learning, leadership development, and community well-being. New programs developed under these pillars include a 9 credit business micro-credential, a 1 credit financial toolkit course, and hi-flex opportunities for learning. Topics discussed when considering the future of legal education involved belonging, DEI, and improving access to legal education for those currently underrepresented. Thank you so much for tuning in.

Bill Cosby's sexual assault conviction was thrown out Wednesday by Pennsylvania's highest court in a ruling that swiftly freed the actor from prison more than three years after he was found guilty of drugging and molesting Temple University employee Andrea Constand at his suburban Philadelphia mansion.Cosby, 83, was the first celebrity tried and convicted in the #MeToo era, and his conviction was seen as a turning point in the movement to hold powerful men accountable for sexual misconduct.Here's a look at the case against Cosby and the court's decision:WHY DID THE COURT TOSS HIS CONVICTION?The split court found that Cosby was unfairly prosecuted because the previous district attorney had promised the comedian once known as "America's Dad" that he wouldn't be charged over Constand's accusations. Cosby was charged by another prosecutor who claimed he wasn't bound by that agreement.The court said that's not the case. The justices found that Cosby relied on that promise when he agreed to testify without invoking his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination in a lawsuit brought against him by Constand.The court concluded that prosecutor who later brought the charges was obligated to stick to the nonprosecution agreement, so the conviction cannot stand. The justices wrote that "denying the defendant the benefit of that decision is an affront to fundamental fairness, particularly when it results in a criminal prosecution that was foregone for more than a decade."WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH THE NONPROSECUTION AGREEMENT?The promise not to prosecute Cosby was made in 2005 by Bruce Castor, who was then the top prosecutor for Montgomery County. Castor was also on the legal team that defended former President Donald Trump during his historic second impeachment trial over the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol by his supporters.During a court hearing weeks after Cosby's 2015 arrest, Castor testified that he promised Cosby he wouldn't be prosecuted in the hopes that it would persuade the actor to testify in a civil case brought by Constand and allow her to win damages. Castor acknowledged the only place the matter was put in writing was in the 2005 press release announcing his decision not to prosecute, but said his decision was meant to shield Cosby from prosecution "for all time."His successor noted, during the appeal arguments, that Castor went on to say in the press release that he could revisit the decision in the future.Castor had said that Constand's case would be difficult to prove in court because she waited a year to come forward and stayed in contact with Cosby.The first jurors who heard the case may have agreed with him, as they could not reach a verdict in 2017. But a second jury empaneled after the #MeToo movement exploded found him guilty at his 2018 retrial. Constand settled her civil case against Cosby for more than $3 million.Castor's successor, District Attorney Kevin Steele, charged Cosby in 2015 after a federal judge, acting on a request from The Associated Press, unsealed documents from her 2005 lawsuit against Cosby, revealing his damaging testimony about sexual encounters with Constand and others. Castor has said Cosby "would've had to have been nuts to say those things if there was any chance he could've been prosecuted."HOW RARE IS THIS?Extremely rare.Wesley Oliver, a Pennsylvania law professor who has followed Cosby's case closely over the years, said he has never heard of a high court in Pennsylvania or anywhere else grappling with a prosecutor's informal promise not to prosecute."It breaks new ground entirely," said Oliver, who teaches at Duquesne University School of Law in Pittsburgh. "It sets precedent not just for Pennsylvania but probably other states."He said the ruling should drive home to prosecutors the risks of suggesting at news conferences, in press releases or verbally in private that they will not prosecute."They should at least add three words — 'at this time,'" he...

Ron Benrey passed away on MAY 11, 2014. This broadcast is from a previously recorded episode of Christian Devotions Speak Up! Ron Benrey was perfectly content in middle age with being sort-of Jewish. He saw Christianity as a collection of nonsensical teachings that most believers don't understand and can't explain. But on one ordinary August afternoon, God "flipped his switch"- without an invitation and without any warning. Almost instantaneously, everything Ron had heard about Christianity made perfect sense. Seconds later he knew that he'd become a Christian. Ron's efforts to learn how to write mystery fiction played a central role in his unexpected conversion to Christianity. Ron imagined writing himself into a novel and abruptly understood that the Incarnation was possible and how God could be a Trinity. The Day God Flipped My Switch tells the fascinating story of Ron's remarkable change of mind and heart-and the novel teaching approach that God used to convey the truth of Christianity to him. Whether you're a fellow late bloomer or you became a Christian much younger in life, Ron shows you how to use the same ways of thinking to build your faith and grow your understanding of Christianity. Ron Benrey, author of The Complete Idiot's Guide to Writing Christian Fiction, began his writing career as Electronics Editor of Popular Science Monthly. He is an experienced non-fiction writer who has written more than a thousand bylined magazine articles, eight published books, and scores of major speeches for the CEOs of Fortune-100 companies. Ron holds a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, a master's degree in management from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, and a juris doctor from the Duquesne University School of Law. He's a member of the Bar of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

Introduction to themes in Martin Luther King’s concept that the arc of the moral universe bends toward justice. Bruce Ledewitz is a professor of law at Duquesne University School of law. He specializes in constitutional law, law and religion and law and the secular. He is the author of American Religious Democracy: Coming to Terms with the End of Secular Politics (Praeger 2007), Hallowed Secularism: Theory, Belief, and Practice (Palgrave Macmillan 2009) and Church, State, and the Crisis in American Secularism (Indiana University Press 2011). Ledewitz received his undergraduate degree from Georgetown University School of Foreign Service and his J.D. from Yale Law School For Ledewitz, America is a society fallen into nihilism. For many Americans, there are no objective sources of meaning and history has no shape. But nihilism has arisen almost accidentally, out of a failure of the culture to defend truth. This podcast is a first step in challenging our nihilism. Jesse Francis, who interviews Ledewitz in Episode 1, is a graduate of Duquesne Law School, where he and Ledewitz had an opportunity to explore the implications of nihilism. Francis is an associate in the Dickie McCamey law firm in Pittsburgh.

Tracey McCants Lewis has made numerous contributions to Pittsburgh and the region. She has been a tenured professor of law at Duquesne University School of Law, she is Deputy General Counsel to the Pittsburgh Penguins and serves on the Board of Directors of the August Wilson African-American Cultural Center. McCants Lewis is a leader in the movement for social justice, in recognition of which the Urban League awarded her the Ron Brown Community Leadership Award in 2017. Part of that leadership is her current work at Duquesne Law School’s Civil Rights Clinic where, among other things, students provide advice and represent individuals pursuing expungements and pardons. For Tracey McCants Lewis, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., is not just a hero out of history, but a constant and contemporary source of inspiration. When Dr. King taught about the arc of the moral universe, it gave people at that time a sense of optimism and hope. Many of the things Dr. King looked for have come true, though much remains to be done. Some of those good things have even happened in hockey. In his plays, August Wilson exemplifies the seeking of justice that Dr. King was pointing to.

On this Gratitude:UnFiltered, Networking4Moms, a Non-Profit for Moms…..Please welcome founders Allison and Emily…. Allison Ferrante , co-founder of N4M, is a business-owner and full-time mom. She attended her dream school, Grove City College, a college that values both faith and freedom. During her 4 years, Allison was the president of her sorority, honor student, named on the dean’s list, was recommended by her peers to be on the homecoming court and received her Bachelor of Science degree in Business Marketing Management with a focus on Communication Studies. She was immediately hired to work for a prime contractor for the United States Naval Nuclear Propulsion Program (NNPP). During those years, Allison married the man of her dreams, a United States Marine and now, firefighter. They bought a house, adopted a pit bull and, together, they realized that they had a passion to live a life that they designed. They quit their jobs and moved to live by the ocean in sunny Charleston, South Carolina. Allison competed and placed in her first bodybuilding bikini competition. A year later, they adopted a second pit bull, and she enlisted into the Air Force National Guard. A few months before heading to basic training, Allison found out that she was pregnant with her first child; her sweet, baby boy Micah. Allison currently works for the Town of Mount Pleasant full-time, while operating IEPPal, an education platform. She also started a non-profit, Networking4Moms, with co-founder and twin sister, Emily Seelman, which is designed to provide the resources for stay-at- home moms to be able to re-enter the workforce. Allison also operates a social media platform with her sister called Emily and Allison: an Instagram account and a YouTube channel. They are also currently in the process of developing a dating app for single parents. She is currently training post-partum to compete in her second bodybuilding bikini competition. Allison has a desire to contribute to her community and improve the lives of those around her by living fully, employing her talents, working hard and loving deeply. Her mission is to uphold the good, the true, and the beautiful while impacting the world. At the same time, she strives to do the little-noticed disciplines well, like growing in the knowledge of her Creator and raising and training her children in His nurture and Word. She believes in living with deep gratitude and joy. Emily Seelman, co-founder of N4M, brings with her experience in the start-up industry as well as a legal background. Emily went to Grove City College,a Christian Conservative school located in Grove City, Pennsylvania, where she received her Bachelor of Science degree in Business Marketing, graduating with high honors in Marketing Management and Dean’s List with Distinction. Her most distinguished honor was being elected sorority president. After college, Emily attended Duquesne University School of Law and graduated Cum Laude with an award for the highest grade in Expert Evidence. During her time in law school, Emily was an Associate Editor for the Duquesne Law Review Journal and received the Distinguished Junior Staff Editor Award. She served as the law school representative for the Pennsylvania Bar Association and Allegheny County Bar Association-Women in Law Division, Vice President of the Christian Legal Society and worked as a student-representative for the Barbri Bar Preparation Company. She was a three-year Merit Scholarship recipient for high levels of achievement. Upon passing the bar exam, Emily practiced as an Associate Attorney in the Civil Litigation and Employment law sections of Leech Tishman Fuscaldo & Lampl, LLC, the 13th largest law firm in the City of Pittsburgh. She also worked with the firm’s legal cannabis team in preparing applications for individuals applying for Pennsylvania medical marijuana permits. In 2017, Emily attended Tony Robbins’ Unleash the Power Within and Date with Destiny events, and realized her passion to live a life of entrepreneurship and to blend work, fun, personal-growth, and service together. She left the “big law firm life” and currently owns and operates a number of start-ups, including TwinMinds, LLC, which operates IEPPal education platform, and Tetra Growth Solutions, a cannabis application and consulting firm. She sits on the Advisory Board for Steel City Hero Hunts, a nonprofit charity that provides fully funded therapeutic trips to the great outdoors for Pittsburgh veterans.

Today, we kick off our special series: #1AUSA – conversations on the First Amendment’s past, present, and future. This five part series will dive into the landmark cases and events that have shaped the First Amendment, and explore the technological, political, and legal developments that continue to shape it today. These conversations were held live last year at the National Conference on the First Amendment in Pittsburgh, hosted by Duquesne University and the Pittsburgh Foundation in partnership with the National Constitution Center. You’ll hear from journalists, judges, plaintiffs, and lawyers who have been at the center of some of the most consequential moments in First Amendment history.   This first episode starts off with a panel moderated by NCC President Jeffrey Rosen. Jeff sits down with radio host Hugh Hewitt; Fox News contributor Juan Williams; and Professor Nadine Strossen of New York Law School. They discuss how private actors not bound by the First Amendment—like social media companies and media outlets— make decisions about how to regulate speech, and what to do about it. Next, you’ll hear from U.S. Solicitor General Noel Francisco and Third Circuit Judge Thomas Hardiman, who share their personal experiences litigating and adjudicating First Amendment cases, in conversation with Duquesne University President Ken Gormley. Later, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg shares a message about what the First Amendment means to her. The MC throughout is Joy McNally, interim director of the Thomas R. Kline Center for Judicial Education at Duquesne University School of Law. This episode was presented by Duquesne University and The Pittsburgh Foundation.

In this episode, Agnieszka McPeak, Associate Professor of Law at Duquesne University School of Law, discusses her article "Disappearing Data," which was published in the Wisconsin Law Review. McPeak describes the civil discovery process, which imposes certain obligations on parties to civil actions to preserve and produce documents and other data to opposing parties. She observes that the trend toward application that produce "ephemeral data" and the concept of "privacy by design" are in tension with the traditional expectations of civil discovery. And she argues that courts should take a fact-specific approach to evaluating how to resolve that tension.
