SBA Board:FROM THE PRESIDENT
Greetings everyone,
Only 2.5 weeks of class left! I hope you are all enjoying the sun, and managing the stress accordingly.
As you move forward don't forget to keep networking and hustling for job and internship opportunities during your summer. You never know where you will "nd your next opportunity. This Friday I aended the La Raza banquet downtown. During the event San Jose's new U.S. District Court judge walked onto the stage, and invited all the students in the crowd to help him "nd externs for the summer, fall, and spring. You never know where your next job will come from, so make it a point to get out to events and talk to aorneys and judges.
This week MELSA, SALSA, and ACS are holding year end evening events. This will be my third time aending the MELSA/SALSA banquet, and I guarantee a fun time. Also, there are some great on campus events this week. Recent exonerees will be speaking at an NCIP program, the Center for Social Justice and Public Service will hold it's spring symposium, and Google's General Council and SCU alum David Drummond will be speaking at Mayer theater on Wednesday night.
Finally, the school will host a graduate luncheon this Thursday. I look forward to seeing everyone recognized for their hard work during law school.
Have a great week,

CGLP Special Speaker:
Justice Richard Goldstone
“International Criminal
Justice: Recent Developments”
Richard Joseph Goldstone is a former Justice of the South African Constitutional Court and former Chief Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court for the Former Yugoslavia.
During the transition from apartheid to multiracial democracy in the early 1990s, he headed the influential Goldstone Commission investigations into political violence in South Africa. Goldstone's work investigating violence led directly to him being nominated to serve as the first chief prosecutor of the United Nations International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia and for Rwanda from August 1994 to September 1996. He prosecuted a number of key war crimes suspects, notably the Bosnian Serb political and military leaders, Radovan Karadži! and Ratko Mladi!. On his return to South Africa he took up a seat on the newly-established Constitutional Court of South Africa, to which he had been nominated by President Nelson Mandela.
In 2009, Goldstone led a fact-finding mission created by the UN Human Rights Council to investigate international human rights and humanitarian law violations related to the Gaza War. The mission's findings that Israel and Hamas had both committed serious violations of the laws of war led to a major international controversy.!

One of the biggest challenges facing nonprofits today is their dearth of strong leaders – a problem that’s only going to get worse as the sector expands and baby boom executives retire. Over the next decade
nonprofits will need to find some 640,000 new executives, nearly two and a half times the number currently employed. – Thomas J. Tierney, Stanford Social Innovation Review, Summer 2006
Addressing the needs and concerns of marginalized, subordinated, or underrepresented clients and causes has long required the resourcefulness of individuals working in concert. What tools have been successful in cultivating, training and retaining, leaders from within these communities and among other concerned people? What characteristics define social justice leaders? What role will new technologies play in movements for social change and how might leaders tap into these technologies? This half-day Symposium will gather generations of social justice leaders and innovators to consider questions related to the social justice sector leadership challenge and to inform and inspire leaders of tomorrow.
