Dear Berkeley Law Alumni,
I am deeply honored to have been appointed to a second five-year term as dean of Berkeley Law. No words can describe how much I have enjoyed my first term or how excited I am about the one to come. This is a wonderful, very special law school, with amazing students, staff, faculty, and alumni. I feel tremendously fortunate to be a part of it.
I am writing to thank you for your support during these past years. You have warmly welcomed me to Berkeley Law and provided help that has been truly essential. The financial support of our alumni is crucial to recruit great faculty and students, to have outstanding clinics, centers, and programs, and to remain one of the top law schools in the world. I am enormously appreciative.
As I contemplate another five-year term, I write to again ask for your support and also your advice. I would welcome your suggestions for how we can better engage our alumni and, more generally, improve our law school. I can be reached at echemerinsky@law.berkeley.edu or (510) 642-6483.
I am very grateful to all who have shown confidence in me to continue to lead Berkeley Law. I am thrilled to have the opportunity to do so.
I wish you all the best for wonderful holidays and a happy, healthy new year.
Warmly,
