Spring 2020 - professor newman is actually a lawyer full time so he probably devotes very little time to this class. however he is truly a great person, cares so much about students, very chill and accommodating. there were reflections due weekly on various topics but they were graded on completion and they were just for collecting your thoughts. there was one final research paper which became optional due to the turbulent sociopolitical context at the time. definitely take this class if you want to maybe network with an immigration lawyer or other immigration activists because every lecture was a guest speaker who does some kind of work regarding immigration rights/activism/policy
