Today the Center for Compliance Studies at Loyola University Chicago School of Law is hosting a terrific conference entitled Complying with Law. Here’s the description from the conference website:

The Loyola University Chicago Journal of Regulatory Compliance will host a one-day symposium to launch its inaugural issue and the establishment of the Center for Compliance Studies. The speakers and panelists will be drawn from law, economics, business, philosophy, and ethics. The conversation of the day will focus around the question of what it means to comply with law in today’s environment. The day will examine the topic in the context of the current the administrative state.
