Lunch with Judges-In-Residence

Every fall for the last seven years - we bring two amazing and inspiring members of the bench to spend two days with us immersed in community at Berkeley Law as our Judges-in-Residence. We are thrilled to be welcoming Judge Birotte and Judge Pillard to campus from September 23 - 24, 2019.

As a part of their visit, I put together small events that allow for our students (particularly 1Ls) to have one-on-one interaction with the judges. A big goal for this program is to make sure that the judges meet and get in front of as many 1Ls in their first semester of law school as is possible!

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.
