WHEREAS, for more than 130 years, Juneteenth National Freedom Day has been the oldest and only African-American holiday observed in the United States; and WHEREAS, Juneteenth is also known as Emancipation Day, Emancipation Celebration, Freedom Day, and Jun-Jun; and WHEREAS, Juneteenth commemorates the strong survival instinct of African Americans who were first brought to this country stacked in the bottom of slave ships in a month-long journey across the Atlantic Ocean, known as the Middle Passage; and WHEREAS, approximately 11.5 million African Americans survived the voyage to the New World. The number that died is likely greater; and WHEREAS, events in the history of the United States which led to the Civil War centered around sectional differences between the North and the South that were based on the economic and social divergence caused by the existence of slavery; and WHEREAS, President Abraham Lincoln was inaugurated as President of the United States in 1861, and he believed and stated that the paramount objective of the Civil War was to save the Union rather than save or destroy slavery; and -1- LR351 LR351 WHEREAS, President Lincoln also stated his wish was that all men everywhere could be free, thus adding to a growing anticipation by slaves that their ultimate liberty was at hand; and WHEREAS, in 1862, the first clear signs that the end of slavery was imminent came when laws abolishing slavery in the territories

  • From the Dean's Desk Fall Is Shaping up to Be a Great
    From the Dean’s Desk Fall is shaping up to be a great season for Baylor Lawyers. First, John Eddie Williams Jr. (JD ’78) was named the Baylor University Alumnus of the Year. Williams has been a great friend to both Baylor Law and Baylor University. John Eddie and Sheridan provided a lead gift for the construction of the Sheila and Walter Umphrey Law Center and most recently made a very generous gift to the new Baylor Stadium that will sit on the banks of the Brazos River directly across from the Law School. Second, the Hon. Leonard E. Davis (JD ’76), Chief Judge of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, has been named the 2012 Baylor Lawyer of the Year. He was surprised with the announce- ment at the Bench and Bar Conference of the Eastern District of Texas. Finally, a survey of litigators conducted by The American Lawyer selected Baylor Lawyer, the Hon. James Rod- ney Gilstrap (JD ’81) of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, as one of “10 Federal Judges to Watch.” You can read all about them in this issue of the Rocket Docket. Also in this issue, you’ll meet some more of our terrific faculty and staff colleagues and see a photo gallery of Baylor’s Homecoming parade. And don’t forget, Baylor Law Alumni Weekend is just around the corner! You can get details on events and registration in this issue of the Rocket Docket.

  • Options for Federal Judicial Screening Committees Second Edition September 2011 (2D
    Options for Federal Judicial Screening Committees Second Edition September 2011 (2d. ed.) OPTIONS FOR FEDERAL JUDICIAL SCREENING COMMITTEES: Where They Are in Place, How They Operate, and What to Consider in Establishing and Managing Them The Governance Institute, the Institute for the Advancement of the American Legal System at the University of Denver (IAALS), and Governance Studies at the Brookings Institution have revised the June 2010 first edition of this guide, and will continue to issue revisions periodically. It provides United States senators, other federal legislators, and their staffs with information about creating committees to screen potential judicial and law enforcement position nominees; provides them and committee members with information about committee operations; and provides others interested in federal judicial selection with information about an often- overlooked aspect of the process. It is not a “best practices” manual, in part because relatively little is known about how such committees work and even less about what seems to work best. The most current version of the guide is available at: www.du.edu/legalinstitute and www.brookings.edu/experts/wheelerr.aspx This guide was authored principally by: Russell Wheeler, president of the Governance Institute and a Visiting Fellow in the Brookings Institution’s Governance Studies program. He has served on the IAALS Board of Advisors since its creation in 2006. Rebecca Love Kourlis, executive director of IAALS. She served on Senator Ken Salazar’s screening committee and co-chaired the committee that Senators Mark Udall and Michael Bennet appointed to screen candidates for two District of Colorado vacancies. (Malia Reddick, director of judicial programs for the Institute, assists with ongoing revisions.) The Institute for the Advancement of the American Legal System (IAALS) is a national, independent research center dedicated to continuous improvement of the process and culture of the civil justice system.
