MSU hosted its first expungement fair at the Breslin Center on Sunday, which gave eligible individuals the opportunity to remove certain offenses from their permanent records. 100 individuals pre-registered for the event and at least 100 more walked in.
Event organizer and law student Alex Padla has been working since early October to bring this fair to the community. He said the event was about "all about empowerment" – and giving individuals a second chance to pass background check.
