April Dawson, an associate dean and professor at the North Carolina Central University School of Law, misses seeing her constitutional law students in person.
But more so particularly this term, as the nation witnessed the nomination and confirmation of Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the U.S. Supreme Court, as well as a historic presidential election.

In this new episode of the ABA Journal’s Asked and Answered podcast, Dawson talks to Senior Writer Stephanie Francis Ward.
