Material for publication and correspondence is always welcome and should be addressed to the Editor. 1 This issue of The Hastings Community is dedicated to the memory of the late George R. Moscone November 24, 1929-November 27, 1978 2 a fair and honest man" I first came to know George Moscone in the mid-1950's as we both worked our way through Hastings as custodians. The Hastings Commu- nity was much smaller then. Few had envisioned the massive law complex now under construction west of the main campus facility. But few had denied that George R. Moscone was destined for political success. In 1966 George was elected to the State Sen- ate, two years after I had been elected as Assem- blyman, both of us representing San Francisco districts and the pride of Hastings. In recent years, George was best known for his accom- plishments as Mayor of San Francisco, but his ability as an outstanding politician became emi- nent during his tenure as Senator of the Tenth District. George was more than a political col- league, he was a close personal friend. I dearly admired him over the twenty-five years that I came to know him. Throughout the years, Hast- ings has gained a reputation for producing re- nowned lawyers who dedicated their lives to public office. But none were more dedicated and sincere than George. He was of a special breed. He was most unique. Despite his quick progress by Willie L. Brown, Jr. up the political ladder in California politics, he managed to maintain a grass roots approach to politics and a closeness to his San Francisco con- stituency. He was never too big as a politician for the people he served. It was this attitude of un- selfishness and lack of egotism that drove George to return to the city he loved so much, San Fran- cisco. Why would a successful politician risk his State Senatorial seat to run for Mayor of a big city? Like all other large urban areas, San Fran- cisco was in disarray. It was plagued by crime, violence, poor management, and other common problems shared by the nation's cities. But San Francisco was George Moscone's city. He was reared, educated, and had taught law in San Francisco. He felt an obligation to his city. I admired George for taking on this difficult task of being Mayor of San Francisco. He had entered city politics at a time when conservatives had re-emerged on the political scene to attack the liberal views he had so vehemently espoused. George, however, was not as much a liberal as he was a fair and honest man. During the height of Watergate and other forms of corruption, George remained the epitome of a politician. He returned to San Francisco not out of political greed, but out of devotion to public service. In November of 1978 the world was saddened by the tragic loss of such a great human being and leader. Those of us who knew and respected George R. Moscone at Hastings, better under- stood the example he has set for us all as a devot- ed family man, politician and product of the Willie Brown and George Moscone Hastings Community. 3 Hastings: The Decade of The 70's Amiel's contention that "Every Life is a pro- plement that function are subversive to the law fession of faith-every person's conduct is an school's mission.

  • Women and Equality
    WOMEN AND EQUALITY A California Review of Women’s Equity Issues in Civil Rights, Education and the Workplace California Senate Office of Research February 1999 Dedicated to Senator Rose Ann Vuich Rose Ann Vuich was elected California’s first woman state senator in 1976 and served four terms through 1992. Although a Democrat by registration, she built a reputation as a political independent who shunned deal-making. Throughout her legislative career, Senator Vuich represented her San Joaquin Valley district first and foremost and relied on her own knowledge and judgment to do it. She was reared on a farm in Tulare County, where she has spent most of her life. With a degree in accounting from the Central California Commercial College in Fresno, she worked as an accountant, tax consultant, estate planner and office manager before her election. After becoming a senator she continued, with her brother, to manage the family farm in Dinuba. The California State Senate began to change after Senator Vuich joined its ranks, followed over the years by other women. She kept a small porcelain bell on her Senate floor desk, and would gently but insistently shake it whenever a colleague addressed the “gentlemen of the Senate.” The Senate chamber originally had no women’s restroom. But that oversight permitted Senator Vuich, during a Capitol restoration in the late 1970s, to design a comfortable “Rose Room” where she and women members into the future could retreat from the Senate floor. A daughter of Yugoslav immigrants, Senator Vuich achieved many “firsts,” from serving as the first woman president of the Dinuba Chamber of Commerce to becoming the first woman to preside over a Senate floor session in 1986.

Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ********************************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and William Newsom, dated August 7, 2009, and Barbara Newsom, dated September 22, 2009 (by her executor), and Brennan Newsom, dated November 12, 2009.
