NEW: With a burst of pardons and commutations, Biden granted clemency to nearly 10 times as many people today (1,538) as he had in the nearly four year-period leading up to today (161). It's part of a growing trend of late-term clemency.

Putting together the year-end piece, and here's what I get for US murders and rate per year from 1960-2024. The 2024 estimate is possibly a little low and obviously not final, but the sharp decline in the last two years is remarkable.

Did you know parts of our beautiful Lake Shore Campus used to be, simply, lake? In 1908, a seawall was constructed to extend the shore by the intersection of Devon and Sheridan. In 1989, Loyola University Chicago undertook an Erosion Protection Extension Project to secure the campus footprint.
