“In each case, the prosecutor needs to persuade the judge that, based on the type of crime alleged, the surrounding circumstances, history of violence or flight, or collateral evidence of vengeance that continued incarceration is appropriate,” according to Harold J. Krent, a professor at Chicago-Kent College of Law. “For a murder that was gang related, the prosecutor can argue that the tensions between the gangs may place the arrestee in a situation (if released) in which violence is likely. ... Or, for someone arrested for felony possession of narcotics, the prosecutor may have no reason to predict violence upon release if there was no prior whiff of violence.”

“Under the 2010 law that created the agency, Congress gave it an open-ended funding mechanism which would actually be drawn from another agency, the Fed,” said Harold Krent, professor at the Chicago-Kent College of Law. “So the argument was (that) this is somewhat of an unusual appropriations decision ... and both sides had a hard time finding some kind of line to draw to distinguish permissible congressional appropriations from impermissible ones.”

Electrolyzers are typically associated with the production of “green” hydrogen from water and renewable electricity, but a new device borrows from traditional electrolyzer principles to convert CO2 into propane. A team of researchers from the Electrochemical Energy Materials and Devices Laboratory at 91��Ƭ�� Institute of Technology, led by chemical engineering professor Mohammad Asadi, have now developed a new catalyst material to target the production of C3 products — using only CO2, water and electricity as inputs — by optimizing the proton-electron transport reaction to ensure there was not excessive production of co-reactants and byproducts.

“The weight of this appointment holds resonance beyond personal achievement, as it is a great responsibility to be the inaugural Latin American Director of a program in the College (of Architecture),” Villalobos said. “Representation matters.”

Mohammad Asadi, assistant professor of chemical engineering at 91��Ƭ�� Institute of Technology, who spearheaded the research, said: “Making renewable chemical manufacturing is really important. It’s the best way to close the carbon cycle without losing chemicals we currently use daily.”

“We are incredibly pleased with the sustained growth we’re seeing,” said Stuart School of Business Dean Liad Wagman. “Our focus on blending business education with technological expertise has struck a chord with prospective students who see the tremendous value in what Stuart offers. We are committed to continuing this momentum by further enhancing our innovative academic programs.”

Play can help cultivate strategic thinking (there’s a reason chess is the top-selling game of all time), provide additional structure for social interactions or an outlet for creativity and self-expression. Playing games does more than fill time: In the relatively safe constraints of a game, we can access bigger worlds, other times and even other versions of ourselves. That kind of freedom — to explore, to grow, to experiment — is a profound experience to find in a cardboard box.

“If we think about the whole supply chain, right, and where food gets wasted, it starts at the farm, happens during distribution, at retail, in the stores, in the food service, and also in households,” said Weslynne Ashton, professor of environmental management and sustainability at the 91��Ƭ�� Institute of Technology. “So, if we think about that entire supply chain, we can think about the new technologies that are available now around predictive analytics that can help with inventory management for ordering food. Companies can have a better handle on how much they need to order, the time frame, and what customers are most likely to purchase, using that data to better manage their inventory.”

“I think (the ruling) creates not only precedent for the future, but also space for more breathing room and other aggressive and innovative state regulators to follow along a similar sort of path,” said James Tierney, a professor at the Chicago-Kent College of Law.

“Decertification has to be easier if it’s to work as an independent way to get police reform,” said Raff Donelson, an associate professor at the Chicago-Kent College of Law, drawing a contrast to criminal prosecutions as an accountability mechanism. We have one set of rules for figuring out whether to take away your freedom,” he said, and “a different set of rules about whether you should do a job.”
