At that time, only six General Counsel of Fortune 500 companies were APA. By Fall 2007 there were 12 APA General Counsels of Fortune 500 companies. To celebrate crossing the historic milestone of over 10 APA General Counsels, NAPABA featured several of the 12 General Counsels. In our Election 2008 NAPABA Lawyer, NAPABA highlighted several more of these General Counsels and in this edition we are happy to present the profile for the remaining APA General Counsels, which completes our coverage of all the current Asian American General Counsels for Fortune 500 companies.

  • Report on Activities 2009-2010
    UCLA Institute for Research on Labor and Employment REPORT ON ACTIVITIES 2009-2010 August, 2010 Introduction Since 1945, the UCLA institute for Research on Labor and Employment (IRLE) has been committed to excellence in research, teaching and civic engagement. The 2009-2010 year was no exception, and despite a challenging fis- cal and political environment, IRLE maintained a vigorous and productive schedule of research and events. De- scribed in detail in this annual report, these achievements include: • Global partnerships with colleagues in China, Vietnam, Brazil and Mexico. • Increased profile and collaborations with the Los Angeles labor community organizations. • Improved collaboration between IRLE units on research projects. • The development and support of scholarly networks across UCLA departments and research centers. • Over 40 publications (books, articles, working papers, etc) by IRLE faculty and staff. One major IRLE report, Broken Laws, Unprotected Workers sparked editorials in the New York Times and Washington Post. • Over 50 academic and community events, hosted at both UCLA and at the Downtown Labor Center. • Formalization of an IRLE Visiting Scholar Program, initiated this year with five scholars from four countries. • Highest enrollment to-date (107) for the undergraduate Labor and Workplace Studies Minor. IRLE is laying the groundwork to build on these accomplishments and to initiate new research and outreach programs and events. There is no doubt that 2010-11 will be a financially challenging year for IRLE, and indeed for the whole University of California system. IRLE plans to meet these challenges by further expanding recently launched grant-writing and development efforts that brought in significant funds in the current year, and by build- ing added synergies among the units of IRLE and through collaborations.
