In this episode of The Geek in Review, we interview Josh Kubicki, Director and Professor of Legal Business Design Hub and Entrepreneurship Program at Richmond Law School, and the creator of the daily newsletter Brainyacts. Kubicki discusses the speed of change in legal technology and how it is now measured in days and weeks, rather than years and decades. He also talks about the need to embrace technological changes and how he created Brainyacts to force himself to learn about generative AI in the legal profession. Kubicki shares his experience of writing 100 consecutive days on generative AI and how it has helped him stay accountable and take a deep dive into the terrain. He also discusses the reaction from the industry side of things and where he digs in to find good content. The advancements in generative AI tools like GPT, Bard, Bing Chat, and a slew of new products that seem to be launching daily has overwhelmed many of us. Resources like Brainacts helps put a little bit of stability in this time of rapid change.

In 1873, the U.S. Supreme Court in a 5-4 ruling decided The Slaughterhouse Cases, which narrowly interpreted the new Privileges and Immunities Clause of the recently ratified 14th Amendment. With this year marking the 150th anniversary of the decision, we're joined today by two leading scholars to understand what The Slaughterhouse Cases were about, and why some scholars and judges–including current Supreme Court justices like Justice Clarence Thomas–have criticized the decision and its effect on constitutional law doctrines; while others have agreed with its interpretation. Guests Kurt Lash, professor at the University of Richmond Law School, and Kermit Roosevelt, professor at the University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School, join to discuss the history and story of the case; what happened after it was decided; and what would happen in constitutional law today if the case was overturned. Host Jeffrey Rosen moderates. Questions or comments about the show? Email us at podcast@constitutioncenter.org. Continue today's conversation on Facebook and Twitter using @ConstitutionCtr.

Richmond Law School professors Jessica Erickson and Josh Kubicki join us to discuss how they are teaching law students not only the critical skills to "think like a lawyer" but also the understanding that they are entering the world of business. Whether that is in BigLaw, non-profit, in-house, public interest, or solo practice, they need to have a baseline of business acumen to practice and thrive. Prof. Kubicki runs Richmond's Legal Business Design Hub that delivers leading-edge competitive skills to the law students and is part of a one-two punch created by Richmond Law Dean Wendy Perdue who also hired Prof. Janice Craft to lead the Professional Identity Formation program which focuses on interpersonal skills needed to be a successful, yet healthy legal professional. Prof. Erickson runs the Law and Business Forum which connects Richmond Law Students with the local business community and teaches students a better understanding of what it means to be a business lawyer.

We pre-recorded today's conversation via Zoom with Dr. Miles Davis, President of Linfield College and former co-host of The Valley Today on the third Wednesday each month. We talked about his historical appointment at Linfield College as their first African-American President in their 160-year history and how his role as the Dean of Shenandoah University's School of Business and the leadership there prepared him for the new position. He also announced that effective July 1, 2020 Linfield College will become Linfield University offering a school of nursing (this year introducing a Master's of Science in Nursing) and a school of business. Founded in 1858, Linfield is a four-year independent college with campuses in McMinnville and Portland. Twenty-five percent of Linfield students are first-generation college students, and more than one-third are U.S. students of color. The U.S. State Department honored Linfield for being Oregon's top producer of Fulbright Scholars in 2017-18. We also discussed the challenging times we find ourselves in and talked about the importance of what comes next. Dr. Davis stressed the importance of education and perspective and how we move forward preparing people for careers and even deeper how we prepare people to think and engage our democracy.We talked about the difference between a monologue and a dialogue and the impact that social media has had on both concepts and the need to produce people who can operate in multiple dimensions of our shifting society. Dr. Davis also explained how his son's recent graduation from University of Richmond Law School shaped how the virtual graduation was performed at Linfield. He told us about the importance of getting student and parent feedback and walked us through how their graduation looked a few weeks ago. We talked about online education and the educational experience beyond what is being taught as a subject matter, that shapes our lives. Things like senior prom, a dance or what it means to walk across the stage to accept your diploma - things that are significant to have your parents present, especially since Linfield has a significant number of first generation students. Finally we teased a new project we're about to begin working on together called "Real Conversations" more on that in the coming weeks. Additionally, Dr. Davis will be moderating a community forum: Strengthening the Relationship between the Community and Law Enforcement on Saturday, June 27, 2020 at James R. Wilkins, Jr. Athletics & Events Center at Shenandoah University from 1pm - 3pm. More information about the in-person and virtually held event can be found here: https://www.unitedwaynsv.org/community-forum You can watch today's show that includes pre/post show conversation on our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/PjnSB2jj58M
