Navigating The Office: What Does "Cause" Mean? (Video)
In considering an offer letter or employment agreement, employees should look closely at what constitutes "cause" for employment termination. While such contractual definitions can appear mundane, the stakes can be particularly high. In many employment agreements, a termination for "cause" means that an employee is not entitled to a notice period, is not paid a severance, and may not receive an otherwise-earned bonus after separation.
Navigating The Office: Is DEI Legal? Part 2 (Video)
On January 16, 2025, this blog presciently posed the question: "Is DEI Legal?"

Issue 2 created "Chapter 3780" in the Ohio Revised Code, which permits adults (21 and over) to possess up to 2.5 ounces of pot and grow up to 6 plants per person (or 12 plants per household).

Those two words – teaching and learning – feature at the heart of our conversations, project submissions, and the plenaries and panels that occur at December’s conference.
