A key objective of the Levin Center at Wayne Law is to foster high-quality oversight investigations by elected officials at the federal, state, local and international levels. To support that objective, the Levin Center seeks to facilitate and expand scholarly research into issues related to oversight investigations. Activities include sponsoring academic gatherings, offering research opportunities, and providing research resources. The Levin Center also maintains a list-serve for oversight scholars which you can join by sending an email to: levincenter@wayne.edu. 

We hope you find these materials of interest. If you have suggestions for additional ways that the Levin Center can support oversight scholars, contact Elise Bean, Director of the Levin Center's Washington Office, at the above email address.
