Former US Representative Susan The McKinney Indiana University Robert H. McKinney School of Law Lawyer Summer 2021 Issue Classes of 2020 and 2021 Participate in Commencement Ceremonies McKinney Law Alumnus J.B. Stradford was Prominent on Black Wall Street IU McKinney Law and Purdue Partner to Offer Innovative Degree Program Dear Alumni and Friends, The July 1, 2021, anniversary of my first year as dean of IU McKinney Law brought us closer to the end of an eventful and challenging time. As vaccination rates increase and COVID-19 cases decline, we are looking ahead with gratitude and anticipation to a return to more “nor- mal” operations. The word “normal” in the life of our law school, however, should not be interpreted to mean “ordinary.” Just the opposite, in fact. As students and faculty once again enliven classrooms at Inlow Hall this Fall, we especially extend a warm welcome to new classes of 1Ls, LLMs and MJs. We continue to plan for activities and operations and are optimistic that we will be able to gather for vibrant conversations and collaborations. The strategic planning preparations we undertook during this past year will be invaluable when we begin the formal process this Fall. Our experienced faculty and technology staff will continue to build upon their online exper- tise in delivering instruction to students who, for a variety of reasons, may need to access legal education at a distance. So many of our initiatives and achievements are made possible through the generosity of loyal alumni. We share a few alumni stories in this issue of The McKinney Lawyer. We hope you will enjoy learning more about what motivates people to create life-changing scholarships for students and remember IU McKinney through annual gifts. The year 2021 marks the 100th anniversary of the Tulsa Race Massacre. Recognizing the significance of the anniversary and the role and impact of the Massacre on our alumnus, JB Stradford, we include a story by the Honorable David Shaheed, ‘84. Please visit the IU McKinney website for details on registering for a virtual event on this important topic at 5 p.m. on Septem- ber 10, which is Mr. Stradford’s birthday. We also invite you to read more about the law school’s partnership with Purdue University to offer the first-ever M.J./M.S. in Agricultural Economics and Law dual-degree program. As you read through this issue, I hope you’ll appreciate, as I do, how well our law school navi- gated through the worst of a historic pandemic. In countless ways, the essential rhythms of law school—papers, presentations, exams, class discussions, and lectures—continued. Students and faculty adopted social distancing, the use of masks, and other restrictions with grace. IU McKinney students continued their pro bono work, assisted clients through our law school’s legal clinics, honed their professional skills in externships, excelled in moot court competitions, and participated in symposia. They learned to lead, to analyze, to problem solve, and to respond to the needs of others. And finally, please take a moment to enjoy the images of our 2021 commencement festivi- ties—my first as dean of the law school—and to appreciate our IU McKinney graduates and their accomplishments. Commencement marks a beginning, not just an end, and I look forward to the upcoming aca- demic season and the transformational possibilities of our strategic planning process. I hope we can meet or become reacquainted in person, and I invite you to stay in touch, in all the ways that work for you, with your IU McKinney Law community. Very truly yours, Karen E.

  • How to Bring About Forest-Smart Mining: Strategic Entry Points for Institutional Donors
    How to bring about forest-smart mining: strategic entry points for institutional donors November 2020 How to bring about forest-smart mining: strategic entry points for institutional donors November 2020 About this report: The World Bank’s PROFOR Trust Fund developed the concept of Forest-Smart Mining in 2017 to raise awareness of different economic sectors’ impacts upon forest health and forest values, such as biodiversity, ecosystem services, human development, supporting and regulating services and cultural values. From 2017 to 2019, Levin Sources, Fauna and Flora International, Swedish Geological AB, and Fairfields Consulting were commissioned by the World Bank/PROFOR Trust fund to investigate good and bad practices of all scales of mining in forest landscapes, and the contextual conditions that support ‘forest-smart’ mining. Three reports and an Executive Summary were published in May 2019, further to a series of events and launches in New York, Geneva, and London which have led to related publications. This report was commissioned by a philanthropic foundation to provide an analysis of the key initiatives and stakeholders working to address the negative impacts of mining on forests. The purpose of the report is to provide a menu of recommendations to inform the development of a new program to bring about forest-smart mining. In the interest of raising awareness and stimulating appetite and action by other institutional donors to step into this space, the client has permitted Levin Sources and Fauna & Flora International to further develop and publish the report. We would like to thank the client for the opportunity to do so.
