Jennifer Gordon was interviewed for a Time article about how current immigration policies under the Trump administration are inspiring prospective students to study immigration law.
Professor Jennifer Gordon at Fordham Law School says when she was teaching her class on immigration law right before the election she had about 25 students. Fast forward to the fall of 2017 and she had nearly 70.
“I think there’s no question that the increased interest is a result of the Trump Administration’s statements about immigrants, and then actions toward immigrants,” Gordon says.
