Bell is a nationally recognized scholar in the area of policing and hate crime, and has written extensively on hate crime and criminal justice issues. In her book, "Policing Hatred: Law Enforcement, Civil Rights and Hate Crime," Bell spent five and a half months with the detectives in a hate-crime unite of a large police department; the unit investigated crimes directed at individuals because of their race, religion or sexual orientation. As she explores in the book, seeing black people in the vulnerable space of victimhood made the detectives connect on a human level; thought they may not have understood the precise racial or religious struggles the victims faced, seeing pain and being able to help in some ways transformed these ordinary officers into victims' advocates. Bell is also the author of "Police and Policing Law," an edited collection that explores law and society scholarship on the police; and "Hate Thy Neighbor: Move-in Violence and the Persistence of Racial Segregation in

Impact on Finances
Assistant Professor of Economics/Finance,
Portfolio Manager/Financial Planner,
On tax reform: "The Trump campaign proposals included significant income tax rate cuts, which would benefit consumers in the short run by putting more money directly in their pocket. This would also have the negative effect of raising the federal budget deficit and national debt -- not good in the long run. So far, the bond market has anticipated what might be done based on Trump's campaign platform. He has done something that has been very difficult for the Federal Reserve to accomplish: raise inflation expectations. This has caused the yields on government bonds to rise quickly and, with them, mortgage rates. So, for those intending to make a home purchase, this might be time because as mortgage rates rise, the house you are considering becomes more expensive to purchase through higher monthly payments."

Shahzeen Attari
Assistant Professor of Human Behavior and Energy Consumption
Attari researches our energy use perceptions, motivations and behaviors and can talk about how misguided most people are when making "smart" choices: "People underestimate energy consumption for devices and activities that in reality actually consume a lot of energy. For example, if you ask someone how much energy a dishwasher uses in an hour, on average they underestimate by factor of 800 times less than what it actually consumes. We face a huge challenge in how to effectively change human behavior to decrease energy consumption without decreasing welfare or happiness. One approach is to focus on behaviors that save a lot of energy and are easy to do (e.g., changing thermostat settings) before we get to behaviors that also save a lot of energy but are harder to do (e.g., carpooling)." Another, addressed in her latest paper published in Climatic Change tackles how Americans are more likely to follow advice about personal energy use from climate scientists who actually practice what they preach.

"While the expectations are that President-elect Trump will seek a repeal and replace of the Affordable Care Act, it is likely to be a 'precision' repeal of only those issues that are considered burdensome on individuals, business, insurers, and governors. The increase in premiums and complex regulatory structures have been blamed for the increase in premiums. In its place, the replace package will be measured as a success if the alternative reduces expands access to services or coverage for those who are newly covered individuals. President-elect Trump and his team have many proposals and will rely on key Congressional Republican leaders to find a pathway that balances expansion of coverage, while reducing health care costs from less complex regulations and greater consumer engagement. A repeal bill without a thoughtful replacement may cause significant disruption to those with coverage and to providers, especially in rural and medically underserviced areas."

On the potential impact of President-elect Trump's healthcare plans and how they may affect hospitals: "President-elect Trump has promised to eliminate the individual mandate to buy health insurance, a move that likely means a return to medical underwriting based on pre-existing conditions. It is anticipated these changes will increase the number of uninsured, which will impact all providers, but especially hospitals that have seen their disproportionate share hospital reimbursements cut. Health plans that offer insurance products through state health insurance exchanges may see a very near-term impact. There's a risk that healthy individuals looking to buy insurance through state exchanges may opt out of the current enrollment process because they assume a

Geyh is an expert on the judiciary and teaches/writes broadly on judicial conduct, ethics, procedure, independence, accountability, administration and relationship between courts and legislatures. He is the author of the recently published "Courting Peril: The Political Transformation of the American Judiciary" (Oxford). In the book, Geyh places the Supreme Court confirmation process in larger context of an American judiciary undergoing a political transformation, panning several generations, in which judges are viewed less as impartial arbiters of law than as politicians in robes. He covers implications and dangers for the rule of law and judicial independence of characterizing -- and regulating -- judges as if they are politicians. According to Geyh, an explosive and deeply polarized breakdown of the appointments process at this juncture could further jeopardize the judiciary's already precarious position.
