Meet Your 1L Professors Mixer

,

The beginning of 1L can be daunting. It's exciting, confusing and potentially a little scary. To ease the transition, our Raza Board hosted a social so the Raza Class of 2021 could meet its 1L professors in a low-key environment. Big shout-out to all the professors that took time out of their schedules to meet their Raza students. Another shout-out to the class of 2021 who took time out of reading and briefing to meet their profs. This is the beginning of another great semester. More events to come- stay tuned. 

Native Land Acknowledgement


We take a moment to recognize that Berkeley sits on the territory of xučyun (Huichin) (Hoo-Choon), the ancestral and unceded land of the Chochenyo (Cho-Chen-yo) speaking Ohlone people, the successors of the historic and sovereign Verona Band of Alameda County. This land was and continues to be of great importance to the Muwekma (Muh-wek-muh) Ohlone Tribe and other familial descendants of the Verona Band.

We recognize that every member of the Berkeley community has benefited, and continues to benefit, from the use and occupation of this land since the institution's founding in 1868. Consistent with our values of community and diversity, we have a responsibility to acknowledge and make visible the university's relationship to Native peoples. By offering this Land Acknowledgement, we affirm Indigenous sovereignty and will work to hold the University of California, Berkeley more accountable to the needs of American Indian and Indigenous peoples.
