“Our food system is really dependent on these long supply chains,” said Illinois Tech’s Weslynne Ashton, professor of environmental management and sustainability and co-director of the Food Systems Action Lab. “Our food is coming from all over the country and really all over the world, and contamination can happen at any point in that journey. And so there's a real awareness about those contamination possibilities along the supply chain, and it is increasing people’s interest and awareness in more local sourcing.”

While window unit filters do catch particles like dust and dander, they don’t perform the same function as an air purifier, for example. “The filters used don’t remove particles very effectively, so the air isn’t necessarily coming out much cleaner than it went in,” says Brent Stephens, a professor at Illinois Institute of Technology who researches indoor air issues.

“There is at the minimum an appearance of a conflict of interest,” said �糵����-Kent College of Law Professor Harold Krent, “and that’s something that should be avoided by the court. It wasn’t.

The editor of “30 Trees: And Why Landscape Architects Love Them,” Illinois Institute of Technology Architecture Professor Ron Henderson, understands diversity as a value.

The SEC had already taken the hint from a 2018 case that the Supreme Court wasn't thrilled with in-house judges and cases and brought its most serious types of fraud cases to the courts, says James Tierney, assistant professor at �糵����-Kent College of Law and a former staff attorney for the agency. “The SEC doesn't have infinite resources, and so if the cost of settlement goes up, it means they're going to have fewer resources to bring enforcement actions,” Tierney says.

Performance-based admissions is about “how do you be inclusive, rather than making it difficult for professional learners, lifelong learners to aspire toward higher education,” said Mallik Sundharam, vice president for enrollment management and student affairs at Illinois Tech.

“I think everybody knows intellectually, you have to decide not to do it,” said �糵����-Kent Professor Richard Kling. “You realize if you get caught, you’re going to get in trouble. You see that with governor after governor and other politicians. The bottom line is they know if they get caught they’re in trouble, but like many other people, their thought is, I’m not going to get caught,”
