Academic Guidelines Distribution Project Abstract The number and scope of programs of organizational and executive coaching has dramatically increased over the past 15 years. An unknown number of private and professional consulting companies offer proprietary or standardized workshops, classes, and coaching services. A growing number of academic institutions in the United States and Canada offer or have plans to offer "coaching programs" packaged or delivered as educational workshops; graduate courses; post-baccalaureate and/or graduate certificates; degree programs or graduate concentrations within degree programs; and as direct coaching service to enhance personal and professional development for students, faculty, and members of the academic administration. Academic coaching programs are located in many areas within a university including within schools or departments of psychology, business, education, public policy, and human resources. A single institution may have multiple yet autonomous coaching programs or offerings. This results in separate and often inconsistent policies and standards by those who establish and deliver the programs, confusion or miscommunication by those who buy the programs, and little interaction between program managers within a single institution, as well as between institutions.

Baxter: A True Pioneer of the San Francisco Bench ARTICLE A TRUE PIONEER OF THE LEGAL PROFESSION AND THE SAN FRANCISCO BENCH THE HONORABLE LEE BAXTER*1 “Where I come from, women didn’t become lawyers.” Judge Baxter stressed this point several times in the conversation with her. It was not too long ago that the legal profession was hostile to women. Judge Bax- ter recalled that as late as 1921, women lawyers were prohibited from joining and participating in the San Francisco Bar Association. Since then, with the courage of women like Judge Baxter, more women than men are going to law school and many women hold prestigious positions within private practice, the court, and in government. While San Francisco has become a progressive area on the cutting edge of accepting diverse populations into the legal profession, this did not come without courageous people.
