Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced in September that the Trump administration will rescind the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.

The guest speaker will be Dan Tichenor, the Phillip H. Knight Professor of Social Science and Senior Faculty Fellow at the Wayne Morse Center for Law and Politics at the University of Oregon. Tichenor will discuss the dynamics of American immigration reform, the origins of our current policy breakdowns and the challenges ahead.
