TAKING THE BROAD VIEW OF PUBLIC SERVICE

In this issue of UW Law, you will see examples of how far-reaching public service has become. For some, there is a limited definition of public service: working for government or a nonprofit agency. For many, public service cuts across disciplines and knows no boundaries. That broad view of public responsibility and service flourishes here at your law school. My own awareness of community and service came during my earliest years. I grew up in a racially segregated community in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. My neighborhood was “mixed,” in the sense of mixed income. When I began the first grade, my family lived in a rented room in a very modest house. Across the street lived the owner of the only black-owned bus company in America, the Safe Bus Company. A lawyer, who later became one of the first African- American judges in the state, lived five houses up the street. In our neighborhood were people from every walk of life—a daycare provider, factory worker, minister, retiree, and elementary school teacher. In that neighborhood, I learned about the true meaning of caring for each other, my definition of public service. From my family and from my neighbors, I learned about people extending themselves. The lawyer helped out troubled neighbors; the doctor made house calls to the retirees. My father cut the grass at the day care. On Saturday mornings, the bus company owner gave free rides to those in the neighborhood without transportation so they could go to the grocery store or visit shut-ins. In that community people cared about each other. They offered whatever they had to each other. Everyone was a true “public servant.” It is that type of spirit which infuses everything we do at the UW School of Law. While we teach students to analyze problems carefully, think critically about solutions, and conduct thorough research, we also seek to instill a sense of responsibility for the world around them. The alumni profiled in this issue all made contributions in the private sector—but all are best known for their outstanding contributions to local communities, states, and nations. Tom Foley was a lawyer in private practice in Spokane before entering Congress, rising there to serve as Speaker of the House, then becoming Ambassador to Japan, and now the North American Chairman of the Trilateral Commission. Jim Ellis, former managing partner at one of the biggest law firms in the country, is best known for his civic activ- ism, environmental stewardship, and service to the University of Washington. Fawn Sharp, recently elected President of the Quinault Nation and a lifelong student of law and human rights, was a family law attorney before returning to the Quinault and devoting herself full time to expanding economic development and educational opportunities for its members. Erman Rajagukguk of Indonesia has put his legal education to greatest use by serving his country in a variety of government and teaching posts. Our law students, with their talents and legal education, are taking those same lessons I learned as a child and bringing them back a hundredfold to their communities and to the world, broadly. Like the UW law school alumni who came before them, today’s students will continue to make a difference in the world because of the common threads we begin weaving in law school. Our distinguished alumni in this issue provide a few superb examples of the type of commitment we want all who come through our program to have as a calling card. Their stories should inspire all of us to dedicate ourselves to public service in the broadest sense.
