Bass Professor of Government at Harvard University Michael Sandel “The professor we all wish we had.” —Kirkus Reviews 8 ■ Boston Bar Association Law Day Dinner 2012 Michael J. Sandel is the Anne T. and Robert M. Bass Professor of Government at Harvard University, where he has taught political philosophy since 1980. In his latest book, What Money Can't Buy: The Moral Limits of Markets , Sandel rethinks the role that markets and money should play in our society. Sandel’s other books include Justice: What’s the Right Thing to Do? , Liberalism and the Limits of Justice ; Democracy’s Discontent ; Public Philosophy: Essays on Morality in Politics ; and The Case against Perfection: Ethics in the Age of Genetic Engineering . His work has been translated into 19 foreign languages. His writings appear in general publications such as The Atlantic Monthly and The New York Times , and his work has been featured in television series on PBS, the BBC, and NHK (Japan). At Harvard, Sandel’s courses include “Ethics, Biotechnology, and the Future of Human Nature,” “Ethics, Economics, and Law,” and “Globalization and Its Critics.” His undergraduate course “Justice” is the first Harvard course to be made freely available online (www.JusticeHarvard.org) and on public television. A recipient of the Harvard-Radcliffe Phi Beta Kappa Teaching Prize, Sandel was recognized by the American Political Science Association in 2008 for a career of excellence in teaching. He has been a visiting professor at the Sorbonne (Paris), delivered the Tanner Lectures on Human Values at Oxford University, and in 2009 delivered the BBC Reith Lectures, broadcast in the U.K. and worldwide on the BBC World Service. In 2010, China Newsweek named him “the most influential foreign figure of the year” in China. In the U.S., Sandel has served on the President’s Council on Bioethics, and is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the Council on Foreign Relations. A summa cum laude, Phi Beta Kappa graduate of Brandeis University (1975), Sandel received his doctorate from Oxford University (D.Phil.,1981), where he was a Rhodes Scholar.

    September 2019 353 Southern Artery Quincy, MA 02169 A PUBLICATION OF THE MASSACHUSETTS CHARITABLE MECHANIC ASSOCIATION President’s Message I hope your summer was a good one. For those of us who attended the summer Quarterly Luncheon at Paul and Jessica Lohnes’ home in Gloucester, I am sure you would agree that day was one of the highlights of the summer. It was a beautiful day to enjoy one another’s company, spend some time at a beautiful home overlooking the ocean, and enjoy a lunch of steak and lobster. Thank you, Paul and Jessica, for welcoming us to your home. During a brief business meeting at the Quarterly, our membership voted to approve some changes to our bylaws. These changes were approved as recommended by a Bylaws Committee and by the Board of Government. The affirmative vote of the membership made them official. The changes bring our bylaws more in line with how we have actually been operating the past couple of decades. Thank you to Joe Valante and Marty Joyce, who chaired the special Bylaws Committee. With the bylaw changes, you can look for an updated “Bylaws and List of Members” book. We hope to have this available by the January meeting. Our current Bylaws and Membership book was last printed in 1998, so we have lots of new members to list as well as the revised bylaws. In June, our Planning Committee completed some of the most important work MCMA does today; selecting organizations who will receive our grants. The Committee approved about $260,000 in grants! As you know, Planning Committee members visit all grant applicants and then meet as a group to decide who will received grants.

  • 2020 Annual Report
    Annual Report Letter from the President Boston Bar Association Boston Dear Members, Colleagues, and Friends: This year has been unlike any other, here in Boston, throughout the Commonwealth, and across the nation. In the legal community, we have experienced unprecedented disruption in our professional and personal lives, as well as a surge in need for legal representation for the most vulnerable among us. Throughout this turmoil, one thing at the BBA has remained constant: the dedication and commitment of our members. In response to the many challenges of 2020, our volunteers have stepped up to contribute their time and talents to our profession and our greater community: from engaging in professional development programming, to supporting the next generation of lawyers, to donating time and expertise to underserved clients and legal services organizations. Whether you participated in a virtual pro bono training, helped organize a webinar, attended a section or steering committee meeting, or signed into a virtual event, you have been a vital part of the success of this organization. Thanks to our 135+ sponsor institutions, 13,000+ members and countless community partners, the Boston Bar has been able to continue our critical work, even while working remotely: • We continued to be an innovative leader in professional excellence, hosting over 150 virtual programs since March and reaching nearly 6,000 people. • We remained passionate advocates, publishing critical reports, forming working groups and task forces, and drafting guides to assist pro se litigants in navigating virtual court proceedings. • We served the needs of our members in every stage of practice, from launching a new Law Firm Leadership Forum, to forming a series of virtual programs and events for law students.

  • Statement of Principles Concerning Immigration and Related Issues Boston Bar Association Statement of Principles Concerning Immigration and Related Issues
    Boston Bar Association Statement of Principles Concerning Immigration and Related Issues Boston Bar Association Statement of Principles Concerning Immigration and Related Issues EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction The Boston Bar Association (BBA) is a professional association of over 10,000 attorney members drawn from private practice, corporations, government agencies, legal services organizations, the courts, and law schools. Our mission is to facilitate access to justice, advance the highest standards of excellence for the legal profession, foster a diverse and inclusive professional community, and serve the community at large. As an Association, we have a long history of supporting civil rights and access to and the administration of justice. We believe that our profession has a unique responsibility to promote and uphold the rule of law as a fundamental principle of our nation’s democracy. The BBA recognizes the central—indeed, indispensable—role immigrants play in our city and state. It is in significant measure because of Massachusetts’ openness to immigrants that our educational, business, and healthcare institutions are recognized as global leaders. As a professional organization, the BBA is enhanced by the valuable contributions of our members and partners who are immigrants, and we affirm our commitment to standing with all immigrant communities in Boston and throughout Massachusetts. The BBA has long supported measures to uphold due process and equal protections rights and access to counsel for immigrants, and in recent months has spoken out against the “travel ban” that would limit immigration from several Muslim countries; condemned the practice of separation of immigrant families at the border; and opposed proposed changes to “public charge” regulations that would make it more difficult for immigrants to access essential benefits and services.
