he images are shocking: pho­ T tographs of dead North Atlantic right whales lacerated by propeller cuts from shipping collisions, living whales with flesh cut to the bone and tails deformed by entanglement with commer­ cial fishing lines. On day two of the October symposium, "20-Ton Canaries: The Great Whales of the North Atlantic," sponsored by the BC Envi­ ronmental Affairs Law Review (EALR) and the Massachusetts Institute of Technol­ ogy Sea Grant College Program, biologist Michael Moore, from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, pulled no punch­ es in illustrating the latest chapter in human­ ity's millennium-long conflict with whales. Moore's presentation at BC Law on the afternoon of October 16 bridged the two parts of the symposium. At the previous evening's session, at MIT's Stata Center, the keynote address by Eric Jay Dolin, author of Leviathan: The History of Whaling in America (WW Norton: 2007), was fol­ lowed by a panel discussion on historic and current causes of whale endangerment. Organized by EALR Editor in Chief Patrick J. Connolly '09, Symposium Editor Conor O'Brien '09, and their editorial board and advisors, the symposium brought together naturalists and animal rights cam­ paigners with experts in ocean, coastal, envi­ ronmental, and marine fisheries law. Their brief: to address long-term threats from cli­ mate change, habitat degradation, and food chain disruption and immediate dangers from ship strikes, entanglements with com­ mercial fishing gear, and the stealthy resumption of commercial whaling. They were also to consider potential regulatory and technological solutions.

Does Law Have a Double Standard?

PANELISTS SEEK BALANCE BETWEEN SECURITY, LIBERTY

t an October symposium born of Athe controversy surrounding last year's selection of US Attorney Gen­ eral Michael Mukasey as BC Law's com­ mencement speaker, panelists examined the competing imperatives of national security and civil liberties and the lawyer's role in creating the balance between them. The subtext of the event, provocatively titled "The Pen, the Sword, and the Waterboard: Ethical Lawyering in the Global War on Terrorism," was even weightier: whether lawyers have a responsibility to provide the moral underpinnings in our society.

And considering the heist was staged on the French Riviera, the ensuing criminal investigation would seem a few flocks of pink flamingos and about 5,000 nautical miles outside his jurisdiction. The unlikely link was a shaggy-haired, motorcy­ cle-riding, fifty-six-year-old lifelong criminal named Bernard Jean Ternus. A French national residing in a tranquil bedroom community outside of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Ternus was arrested ten months after the dra­ matic daylight heist for conspiring to transport the stolen paintings with the intent of profiting from their illegal sale.

"If you look at some of the successful recoveries in the last decade, there are a number of instances where stolen paintings were recovered very quickly and by a means that caused incredible damage [to the paintings]," he adds. "Whether it's art or antiquities Clans or an archeological treasure-something that is part of our world's cultural heritage-the approach is very different than if cargo is stolen from a ship. There is as much importance placed on securing the return of the property as there is on rounding up the bad guys and bringing them to justice." Building the case within that context dominated the first ten months of Hunter's return to civil service from the private sector, and carried a measure of per­ sonal relevance along the way.

in their area of expertise. Prof. Kent Greenfield Here's what they had to say. On Corporate Governance I urge the new president to continue speaking with confidence about our nation's ability to overcome. He can use the bully pulpit to remind executives that they act on behalf of all those who invest in their companies, not just shareholders but also employees and communities.

I recommend that he focus on corporate governance, a more efficient way of protecting stakeholder and public inter­ ests than post-hoc regulation or redistribution. Our current problems developed because corporate governance skewed toward executives and financiers, with the acquiescence of the courts and regulators. Needed is a countervailing power at the table interested in stable, long-term growth, the fruits of which are broadly shared. This could be achieved, as in the European Union, through employee representation on boards of large companies. I also suggest he assert federal power over corporate governance. Delaware has disproportionate power; its extreme pro-management law imposes negative exter­ nalities on other states, the national economy, and com­ pany stakeholders. One small state should not establish the rules for governance of our most powerful businesses. Professor Kent Greenfield, author of The Failure of Corporate Law, was an early supporter of Obama's candidacy.

Prof. Ingrid Hillinger On Mortgages President Obama should encourage Congress to amend chap­ ter 13 of the Bankruptcy Code to let debtors "strip down" their home mortgages to their current value and pay that value plus interest.

The JRAP model forces law students to confront the root causes of juveniles' legal problems. This is in keeping with an ap­ proach known as "holistic and community lawyering," which is common among public interest practices that address the legal needs of indigent or otherwise powerless clients, on matters rang­ ing from legal aid to domestic vi­ olence, criminal defense, juvenile advocacy, and elders' services. "Looking at systemic issues and systemic reforms is the most effi­ cient way and the most effective way to address the problems," says Sania Metzger, director of policy for Casey Family Services, the direct service agency of the An­ nie E. Casey Foundation. In the decade-plus years of JRAP's existence, it has become a national symbol of exemplary rep­ resentation for delinquent girls, an indispensible resource for juvenile courts and agencies, and an initia­ tor of evidence-based reforms. "They've had a tremendous impact in the Boston area and nationally," says Patricia Puritz, executive di­ rector of the National Juvenile De­ fender Center, which works to im­ prove the juvenile defense bar.

"Fran's idea was that connecting the girls to a health care provider at a community health center would give girls a role model that could reinforce positive behavior." MHPP has been so successful that DYS is planning to expand it be­ yond Boston and Worcester, and to include boys. Law students support MHPP by, for example, researching and writing guides and manuals about the health care rights of juveniles. As the law students contribute to these projects and policy initia­ tives, they receive grounding in the realities of juvenile justice by representing individual girls (and, increasingly, boys).

BENCHMARKS To Lead and to Serve

by Academic Dean R. Michael Cassidy

t Boston College Law School we aspire to train lawyers DAN COQUILLETTE Awho will be leaders in their communities and in their J. Donald Monan, SJ, profession. In the words of our mission statement, "we University Professor seek to train a diverse student body not merely to be good lawyers, but to be lawyers who lead good lives, and who will be prepared to seek and to find meaningful work in service to others that will enrich their communities." The call to leadership at BC Law is not about self promo­ tion, enhancing one's reputation, or garnering power. It is ~ about service to others. In his famous Allegory of the Cave ~ from The Republic, Plato envisioned the cave dweller who R. MICHAEL CASSIDY escapes and sees the light in the outside world. Plato's allegory is, of course, a vehicle for commenting about the dif­ ference between truth and perceived reality, and the role of the educated in a just society. In Plato's just republic, the person who escapes the cave assumes a moral responsibility to re­ .II. enter the dwelling and help those imprisoned inside interpret the shadows. FRANK GARCIA This is the sense in which we talk about leadership at BC Law; that is, a willingness Professor and Director of the Law to use our positions of knowledge and authority as lawyers to help reform and improve and Justice in the Americas Program our communities. The expectation of servant leadership at Boston College is passed on from generation to generation of law students in a variety of manners: by the types of students we admit, by the curriculum we provide, and by the service and pro bono activities we support. Yet another important way that we sustain this tradition is by the mentoring and modeling our students receive from their faculty. Like BC alumni, our faculty members heed the call to leadership and service in their own professional activities. The worthy projects they undertake help model appropriate professional behavior for our students. Notwithstanding the significant pressures of scholarship and teaching, my colleagues are presently serving in prominent leadership roles throughout the legal profession. Our dean, John Garvey, serves as president of the Association of American Law Schools.

Professor Frank Garcia serves on the Board of Trustees of the Law School Admissions JOHN GARVEY Council. Professor Dan Coquillette acts as Reporter to the Standing Rules Committee of the Federal Judicial Center, which considers and drafts revisions to the rules governing Dean litigation in the United States courts. Professor Judy McMorrow serves on the Supreme Judicial Court's Committee on Judicial Ethics. Professor Vlad Perju was recently appointed by the president of Romania to serve on a blue-ribbon commission to rewrite that country's constitution. Professor Mary-Rose Papandrea recently has been elected to the Board of Directors of the American Civil Liberties Union of Massachusetts. My list could go on and on. To cite even these few examples risks minimizing the important work of many other colleagues not mentioned. But I urge you to scan the "Academic Vitae" pages of this magazine. I think you will be very proud of the important work that your faculty is doing outside the ivy-covered walls of the Newton campus. Their service brings great credit to the Law School and helps position BC strongly on the national and international stages. But far more importantly, their voices and their energy are helping to give back to their communities, which is nothing less than BC expects from both its students and graduates.

In fact, he says, he was in "anguish" his first month at school. Donohue had come in 1968 to BC Law to hone his business skills. He had pulled up roots and quit his engi­ neering position at Penn State. When he arrived at law school, he found it "full of hazy gray areas." That was tough for Donohue, who as an engineer had learned to see things in black and white. The first week at BC Law, he told a professor, '''I read this case last night. Here are the facts, here is the law, here is the answer. Why do we have to listen to that guy up front argue with you for fifteen or twenty minutes about nonsense?'" Donohue still believes the Socratic method is ineffi­ cient. But he has come to feel that the education he received at BC Law is worth a great deal---enough to prompt him and his wife Pamela to make one of the largest gifts in the Law School's history, which will endow a junior faculty position in business law. latory issues, contracts, tax issues, human resources-was By the time Donohue, a native of Montreal, came to new to him.

Finding the Deeper Layers

ONE WARM WEDNESDAY EVENING LAST SUMMER, I sat on the steps of the Institute of Con­ temporary Art looking out over the South Boston Waterfront. Boats cruised in and out of the har­ bor while joggers ran back and forth in front of me on newly completed portions of the Harbor­ walk. All around were signs of the new Boston, from the Harborwalk and the ICA, to the Moak­ ley Federal Courthouse, the Harbor Tunnels, and Piers Park in East Boston across the water.

Our guest speaker that evening was a former Massachusetts Assistant Secretary of Envi­ ronmental Affairs. Sitting on the steps of the ICA, he told us the stories behind each of those new signs of Boston-stories involving political wrangling, development deals gone right and wrong, lawsuits, community activism, and, of course, complex permitting processes. As a former journalist, I knew some of that history. I had covered many of the stories of Boston's recent revitalization as they happened, from sharp-elbowed battles over the Big Dig and development of the South Boston Waterfront, to celebrated moments such as the opening of the Zakim Bridge and the tearing down of the elevated expressway.

THE BRIDGE BUILDER

An old man, going a lone highway, Came, at the evening, cold and gray, To a chasm, vast, and deep, and wide, Through which was flowing a sullen tide.

The old man crossed in the twilight dim; The sullen stream had no fear for him; But he turned, when safe on the other side, And built a bridge to span the tide.

LIGHT-the· WORLD "Old man," said a fellow pilgrim, near, "You are wasting strength with building here; Your journey will end with the ending day; You never again will pass this way; You've crossed the chasm, deep and wide­ Why build you this bridge at the evening tide?"

The builder lifted his old gray head: "Good friend, in the path I have come," he said, "There followeth after me today, A youth, whose feet must pass this way.

This chasm, that has been naught to me, To that fair-haired youth maya pitfall be. He, too, must cross in the twilight dim; Good friend, I am building this bridge for him." - Will Allen Dromgoole
