  • Ruth Bader Ginsburg Lecture Series 2001–2019 011219 Women and the Law Conference History
    WOMEN AND THE LAW CONFERENCE RUTH BADER GINSBURG LECTURE SERIES 2001–2019 011219 WOMEN AND THE LAW CONFERENCE HISTORY Inaugurated in 2001, the Women and the Law Conference was the first lecture series in the western United States focusing exclusively on issues related to gender and the law. Created by Thomas Jefferson Professors Julie Greenberg, Susan Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg Tiefenbrun and Susan Bisom-Rapp, and fostered by a committed group of faculty, staff and students, the first conference earned rave reviews from its attendees, including practitioners and legal academics. Professor Deborah Rhode of Stanford Law School, a widely acknowledged expert on the status of women in the legal profession, and then-Chair of the American Bar Association’s Commission on Women in the Legal Profession, delivered the first keynote address. After her 2003 visit to Thomas Jefferson School of Law, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg generously created the Thomas Jefferson School of Law Ruth Bader Ginsburg Lecture, which at the time was one of only two lecture series bearing her name. Ruth Bader Ginsburg Lecturers Joan Williams, Martha Albertson Fineman, Kathryn Abrams, Vicki Schultz, Rochelle Dreyfuss, Barbara Palmer, Cheryl Hanna, Kimberlé Crenshaw, Stacy Leeds, Sarah Weddington, Susan Williams, Stacy Pedrozo, Leslie Abramson, Bryant Garth, Leticia Saucedo, and Linda C. Babcock have delivered presentations on a wide range of topics that have a profound effect on women. Chai Feldblum is delivering the 2019 Ruth Bader Ginsburg Lecture. Justice Ginsburg returned to the 2013 Women and the Law Conference and discussed the role of women in the judiciary.

  • Reviewing Precinct Level Results of the June 2012 San Diego Mayoral Election
    Reviewing Precinct Level Results of the June 2012 San Diego Mayoral Election The Looming Battleground in Clairemont The race to become mayor of the City of San Diego has narrowed down to two finalists. In this policy brief the National University System Institute for Policy Research (NUSIPR) analyzed newly released electoral data from the San Diego County Registrar of Voters’ office using GIS software. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • The June mayoral primary was a partisan election. Interstate 8 continues to delineate a partisan divide in San Diego, which weighed heavily in the electoral outcome. GIS maps show that Republican DeMaio earned most of his votes in older, more conservative neighborhoods north of Interestate 8, while Democrat Filner won the lion’s share of votes among the younger, more diverse and liberal enclaves south of 8. Both candidates are likely to target low-propensity partisan voters that did not turn out for the June election, to shore up their base early in the fall election. • Support for Bonnie Dumanis and Nathan Fletcher lacked a geographic base. NUSIPR found that District Attorney Bonnie Dumanis and State Assemblyman Nathan Fletcher won only a handful of precincts outright, even when combining their votes. GIS mapping shows that there was no clear territory where either candidate earned deep voter support. Generally, Dumanis and Fletcher did best in parts of Carmel Valley, Point Loma, and Mission Valley. However, in only 9 precincts (out of a total of approximately 633) did the combined vote total of Dumanis and Fletcher exceed 50%. • Clairemont will be a high-stakes voter battleground for DeMaio and Filner in November.

  • USC Dornsife in the News Archive - 2016
    USC Dornsife in the News Archive - 2016 December December 22, 2016 The Conversation published an op-ed by Khatera Sahibzada, adjunct lecturer in applied psychology, on the practical application of a 13th century Sufi saying to managerial feedback in the present. "As long as managers always ensure their feedback is unbiased, essential and civil, it’s almost certain to be effective and help an employee grow," Sahibzada wrote. The New York Times quoted Stanley Rosen, professor of political science, on the efforts of Chinese movie production companies to reach worldwide audiences with the film "The Great Wall." USA Today quoted Matthew Kahn, professor of economics and spatial sciences, on President-elect Donald Trump's economic goals related to China. UPROXX quoted Robert English, associate professor of international relations, Slavic languages and literature, and environmental studies, on the reasons Russian media may have reported on the opening of an embassy by the California secessionist group Yes California. December 21, 2016 The Korea Times published commentary by Kyung Moon Hwang, professor of history and East Asian languages and cultures, on why the current political turmoil in South Korea should not be considered a "revolution." Hwang argues the final steps towards true democratization will finally yield the benefits from the country's previous revolution. December 20, 2016 NPR Chicago affiliate WBEZ-FM highlighted research by Duncan Ermini Leaf of the USC Schaeffer Center, Maria Jose Prados of USC Dornsife 's Center for Economic and Social Research and colleagues on the long-term benefits of preschool. The study, led by Nobel Prize winner James Heckman, found life cycle benefits for children enrolled in high-quality preschool programs, general benefits for parents, and savings for the community as a whole.
