Giving Impact Furthreporter Together from the Interim Dean 2015 / 2016 /////////////////// GIVING IMPACT FURTHREPORTER TOGETHER FROM THE INTERIM DEAN Gandhi once urged us to “be the change you wish to see in the world.” Sage advice—especially here at Berkeley Law—given the clarion call for change we’re hearing in so many corridors of legal education. From classrooms to clinics, financial aid to field placement, the model for how to best recruit and train tomorrow’s lawyers is evolving rapidly. Fortunately, those who inhabit this phenomenal school do not fear change, but rather embrace “We make it. In fact, they’re often the ones making it. And in so many instances, that change wouldn’t be possible without our inspiring alumni and friends. Your financial support empowered us to do some amazing things this year: Protect consumers against identity theft and other online privacy concerns. Provide legal and organizational advice that enabled local startups to take flight. Save low-income tenants in Oakland’s Chinatown from scurrilous eviction efforts. Guide local government agencies on how to best administer water- a living by conservation programs. Help Mexican law professors and students implement their country’s new criminal justice system. The list goes on and on. Donors like you give Berkeley Law a stronger voice in the world by making it accessible to brilliant students from all backgrounds—and by helping them gain the best possible training once they’re here. The incredible things they do with that training, both while they are with us and long after what we get. they leave Boalt Hall, fortify our foundation and validate our purpose. But we cannot rest on our laurels, and indeed, we still have some catching up to do. For decades, the school had no need to create a culture of philanthropy amid miniscule tuition and California’s strong state support for public higher education. But those days are long gone. To remain excellent, we must rely on our alumni community to pay it forward by supporting the next generation of Boalties. Currently, our alumni giving percentage is not on par with our peer law schools. Buoyed by our shared love for this school and its mission of excellence, I am confident We make a that we can—and will—do better. Of the many reasons why I feel so blessed to serve as interim dean these past nine months, none is more powerful than seeing how much our graduates care about their school. Every day, you affirm Berkeley Law’s passionate commitment to our students, our community, and our state. life by what Thank you for making this law school a place where remarkable is the norm.

MORRISON PROFESSOR OF LAW - WINSTON CHURCHILL 2 ///// GIVING IMPACT REPORT FINANCIAL AID “I really value what our financial aid program has done for me personally and how it creates a diverse student body that I’ve learned so much from here. There’s no substitute for attending school with driven students from different backgrounds who have wide-ranging perspectives. A thriving aid program makes Berkeley Law a reality for students who otherwise couldn’t afford it, and ensures that they aren’t pulled to other schools by financial considerations.” JORDAN BOCK ’17 MANAGING EDITOR, CALIFORNIA LAW REVIEW; ASSOCIATE EDITOR, BERKELEY JOURNAL OF CRIMINAL LAW; BOARD OF ADVOCATES MOOT COURT TEAM; CO-DIRECTOR, FOSTER EDUCATION PROJECT; 2017-18 CLERK, U.S. NINTH CIRCUIT WHY COURT OF APPEALS JUDGE MICHELLE FRIEDLAND “Berkeley Law allowed me to reach a level of professional achievement I never imagined was possible. During my time as a student, tuition was practically free thanks to support provided by the State of California. This was, in effect, a scholarship provided to UC students of my generation.

  • Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018
    Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018 Conforming to General Convention 2018 1 Preface Christians have since ancient times honored men and women whose lives represent heroic commitment to Christ and who have borne witness to their faith even at the cost of their lives. Such witnesses, by the grace of God, live in every age. The criteria used in the selection of those to be commemorated in the Episcopal Church are set out below and represent a growing consensus among provinces of the Anglican Communion also engaged in enriching their calendars. What we celebrate in the lives of the saints is the presence of Christ expressing itself in and through particular lives lived in the midst of specific historical circumstances. In the saints we are not dealing primarily with absolutes of perfection but human lives, in all their diversity, open to the motions of the Holy Spirit. Many a holy life, when carefully examined, will reveal flaws or the bias of a particular moment in history or ecclesial perspective. It should encourage us to realize that the saints, like us, are first and foremost redeemed sinners in whom the risen Christ’s words to St. Paul come to fulfillment, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” The “lesser feasts” provide opportunities for optional observance. They are not intended to replace the fundamental celebration of Sunday and major Holy Days. As the Standing Liturgical Commission and the General Convention add or delete names from the calendar, successive editions of this volume will be published, each edition bearing in the title the date of the General Convention to which it is a response.

    COMING MARCH 30! WOMEN’S HISTORY TRIP to Cambridge, Maryland, on the Eastern Shore, to see the Harriet Tubman Museum and the Annie Oakley House. Call 301-779-2161 by Tuesday, March 12 to reserve a seat. CALL EARLY! Limited number of seats on bus - first ones to call will get available seats. * * * * * * * MARCH IS WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH – AND HERE ARE SOME WOMEN FROM MARYLAND’s AND COTTAGE CITY’s PAST! By Commissioner Ann Marshall Young There are many amazing women in Maryland and Cottage City’s history. These are just a few, to give you an idea of some of the “greats” we can claim: Jazz singer Billie Holiday (1915 – 1959) was born Eleanora Fagan, but took her father’s surname, Holiday, and “Billie” from a silent film star. As a child she lived in poverty in East Baltimore, and later gave her first performance at Fell’s Point. In 1933 she was “discovered” in a Harlem nightclub, and soon became wildly popular, with a beautiful voice and her own, truly unique style. Her well-known song, “Strange Fruit,” described the horrors of lynchings in Jim Crow America. Through her singing, she raised consciousness about racism as well as about the beauties of African-American culture. Marine biologist and conservationist Rachel Carson (1907-1964) wrote the book Silent Spring, which, with her other writings, is credited with advancing the global environmental movement. Although opposed by chemical companies, her work led to a nationwide ban on DDT and other pesticides, and inspired a grassroots environmental movement that led to the creation of the U.S.

  • Radical Pacifism, Civil Rights, and the Journey of Reconciliation
    09-Mollin 12/2/03 3:26 PM Page 113 The Limits of Egalitarianism: Radical Pacifism, Civil Rights, and the Journey of Reconciliation Marian Mollin In April 1947, a group of young men posed for a photograph outside of civil rights attorney Spottswood Robinson’s office in Richmond, Virginia. Dressed in suits and ties, their arms held overcoats and overnight bags while their faces carried an air of eager anticipation. They seemed, from the camera’s perspective, ready to embark on an exciting adventure. Certainly, in a nation still divided by race, this visibly interracial group of black and white men would have caused people to stop and take notice. But it was the less visible motivations behind this trip that most notably set these men apart. All of the group’s key organizers and most of its members came from the emerging radical pacifist movement. Opposed to violence in all forms, many had spent much of World War II behind prison walls as conscientious objectors and resisters to war. Committed to social justice, they saw the struggle for peace and the fight for racial equality as inextricably linked. Ardent egalitarians, they tried to live according to what they called the brotherhood principle of equality and mutual respect. As pacifists and as militant activists, they believed that nonviolent action offered the best hope for achieving fundamental social change. Now, in the wake of the Second World War, these men were prepared to embark on a new political jour- ney and to become, as they inscribed in the scrapbook that chronicled their traveling adventures, “courageous” makers of history.1 Radical History Review Issue 88 (winter 2004): 113–38 Copyright 2004 by MARHO: The Radical Historians’ Organization, Inc.
