Two weeks ago, the Newswire published an article explaining the issue of eminent domain, its context and its relevance to Xavier University. Building off this article and using official documents along with some limited but helpful personal testimony by Probate Judge James Cissell, I hope to address the issue of a private institution, namely Xavier University, invoking eminent domain on a private property owner.

All my lovely nerds, be prepared. There will be an Academic Book Fair from 10:30 a.m.-1:30 p.m. in GSC room 214. Any questions will be answered by publishers who are standing by.
