Much like in Shakespearean plays, a government-driven investigation into company compliance can end as either a comedy or as a tragedy. To ensure the former, in-house counsel should work collaboratively with outside counsel to plan, establish, and execute an effective response plan.

By following the “10 Hallmarks for a Successful Compliance Program,” in-house counsel can implement a system that effectively safeguards against compliance risk, without breaking the budget in the process.

In the companion cases Students for Fair Admissions, Inc. v. President and Fellows of Harvard College and Students for Fair Admissions, Inc. v. Univ. of North Carolina, the US Supreme Court recently held that race-based admissions practices in higher education are unconstitutional.
