Every year, Lawline puts together a list of our Top Women Faculty from the previous year in order to spotlight their accomplishments for Women’s History Month. 2020 was a tough year for instructors, who needed to adapt rapidly to filming over Zoom (along with everything else), and the attorneys on this list rose to the challenge spectacularly. Our top women faculty are at the top of the game in their practices – which range from employment law to civil rights, and everything in between – and also masters of pedagogy, making an impact on attorneys across the country. They are on the front lines of developments in cybersecurity, constitutional law, diversity and inclusion, and more, providing practical, actionable advice that attorneys can implement immediately to improve their practice. The women on this list taught some of the most-watched, highest rated programs Lawline produced in 2020 – and we are incredibly proud that we provided the platform for them to shine.
“China’s proven it will not self-limit in competition, so we cannot expect them to self-limit in conflict,” said Maj. Gen. Richard Ross Coffman, who heads armored vehicle modernization at Army Futures Command. “We’ve got to be able to fight no matter where we are.”

March is Women’s History Month. Despite the disheartening news that women and people of color continue to advance incrementally in the profession (and that’s politely putting lipstick on a pig), there have always been women lawyers and judges fighting challenging odds to make a difference. Sandra Day O’Connor, the first woman appointed to the United States Supreme Court, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and then Sonia Sotomayor, and Elena Kagan, and most recently, Amy Coney Barrett. Four women out of nine presently sitting on the Court. Until 30 years ago there were none. And witness Vice President Kamala Harris, a woman lawyer and a BIPOC.

WASHINGTON: Space and Missile Systems Center (SMC) is wrapping up the prototype phase of its ambitious effort to create a common tool kit for routine command and control (C2) of all DoD’s satellites. SMC now aims to have an acquisition strategy ready in time for the fiscal 2023 budget chop, officials say.
“We are putting together that formal acquisition strategy,” Joshua Sullivan, SMC’s program manager for the Enterprise Ground Services (EGS) said in an interview yesterday. “I expect that we will start coordinating through the Space Force on that in the next fiscal year, so in FY22.”
