On March 28, the Wake Forest Law community came together at Joymongers for the Public Interest Law Organization’s (PILO) annual Spring Auction.
The evening brought students, faculty, alumni, and friends together in support of a shared purpose: expanding access to public-interest opportunities. Through generous contributions and enthusiastic participation, the event raised critical funding for summer grants that enable students to pursue meaningful, service-driven legal work.
Thank you to everyone who attended, contributed, and helped support students pursuing public-interest work.
On Friday, March 27, 2026, the Wake Forest Law Review hosted the symposium “Injury, Insight, and Influence: Celebrating the Work of Professor Michael Green.”
The symposium honored former Wake Forest Law Professor Michael Green and his legacy as a scholar, teacher, and leader in tort law. Panels brought together leading voices in the field to explore pressing and emerging developments that build on Professor Green’s work.
Discussions included “Adjudicating Torts: Judges, Juries, & the Dynamics of the Civil Trial,” “Restating Responsibility: New Torts, Modern Harms, & Ethical Foundations,” “Accountability in Complex Systems: The Relationship Between Regulation & Tort Law,” and “Reflections on a Legacy: Lessons Learned from Michael Green About Life, Law, & Love.”
Thank you to the sponsors, panelists, moderators, and the Wake Forest Law Review for organizing a meaningful tribute to Professor Green’s lasting impact.
April is Earth Month—a time to focus on small changes that can make a big impact.
One of the easiest places to start? Food waste.
In the US, 30–40% of food goes uneaten—wasting money and resources, and contributing to climate change.
Try this to get started:
🌎 Check your fridge before shopping
🌎 Make a simple grocery list
🌎 Buy only what you’ll use
Follow along this month for more easy ways to waste less.
Did you know that in the 1980s, Wake Forest Law had not one, but two student newspapers: Hearsay and Ipse Dixit. On April 1, Ipse Dixit would publish a special April Fools issue, titled Ipse Non Dixit, with some wacky, off-the-walls articles and some that may have felt a little too real (four years of law school—eek!).
What do you think, should we resurrect Ipse Dixit??
