thank you for giving, supporting, and including
I am heartened by how our generous alumni, faculty, and friends have given thoughtfully and generously to our diverse community at the University of San Diego School of Law This year I announced that a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Task Force would be established at the USD School of Law Educational and career outcomes are enhanced when the school creates a learning environement in which students from all backgrounds and lived experiences feel welcomed, included, supported, and a full sense of belonging
In Fall 2021, the Task Force convened a variety of stakeholders to enhance and guide the School of Law’s actions to advance diversity, equity and inclusion for all members of its community In the same vein, many of our donors specifically contributed funds to increase and support this cause at our law school
As an institution anchored along an international border, we must continue to make diversity and inclusion a priority at USD School of Law The programs and initiatives highlighted in our Donor Impact Report will showcase how your support is benefitting our student body and curriculum Thank you for your part in making USD School of Law an institution where everyone can feel welcomed and supported
With sincere appreciation,
Robert A. Schapiro Dean and C Hugh Friedman Professor of Law
MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN
YOUNG MAUDSLEY
alexander Kat ʼ22 (JD)
In his own words
I joined Young Maudsleys due to my family’s commitment to giving back and making a positive impact, particularly within the USD School of Law community My wife, Julianna ʼ16 (JD), serves on the USD Law alumni board, Earl B Gilliam Bar Foundation, and the Association of Corporate Counsel, so I have quite the reputation to live up to as I start my career
My journey at USD was marked by my involvement in various organizations, more notably the Employment and Labor Law Society (EALLS) and La Raza Law Students Association, where I had the privilege of serving as president for both during my final year EALLS was able to partner with various student organizations and fundraise for our student scholarship, raising over $6,000 and assisting a number of students during our inaugural networking/fundraising mixer held each spring semester La Raza was able to work collaboratively with the two other San Diego law schools and plan multiple events geared toward advancing opportunities for the Latino community
I took every opportunity to get as much practical experience as possible One of the highlights of my time at USD was my externship with a federal court judge, an experience that broadened my understanding of the legal system I also had the privilege of serving as a research assistant to Professor Orly Lobel and helping with her newly-published book However, it was my work at a boutique employment defense firm that truly resonated with my passion and previous work experience that allowed me to find my way into my current practice area – labor and employment
Being a first-generation college student has significantly shaped my perspective and fueled my commitment to giving back The struggles I faced growing up are shared by many who come after me, and this shared experience serves as a driving force in my dedication to guiding and supporting students, during their time in law school but also inspiring elementary through high school students to pursue a legal education I firmly believe that no one should feel alone on their educational journey, and my personal history motivates me to extend a helping hand to the next generation Whether through mentoring, providing guidance, or supporting financially, I am driven by the belief that everyone deserves an opportunity to succeed and if I can make that even the slightest more simple or stress free, then I will find a way to contribute
Currently, I am an attorney with Snell & Wilmer, and I focus on leveraging my experiences and expertise to assist employers with the ever-changing employment law landscape I was also recently elected to serve as a Director for the San Diego La Raza Lawyers Association With my amazing family of four, we try to truly experience everything San Diego has to offer, especially the growing soccer community (Go SD Wave!)

California Honors
Alec Cory
On April 24, California celebrated Alec Cory Day in honor of legendary San Diego lawyer and longtime social justice warrior and leader in San Diego’s legal community In Cory’s name, Procopio annually awards the Alec L Cory Award for Outstanding Pro Bono Service, a graduate award given to San Diego law school graduates who have demonstrated an outstanding commitment to their community
Cory was among the first lawyers in the San Diego legal community to embrace pro bono work and provide legal services to the poor His commitment to the San Diego legal community drove his firm’s many contributions to students at the University of San Diego (USD) School of Law Cory was also instrumental in establishing the Alec Cory/Procopio Scholarship Fund that assists students with a demonstrated interest in public service or public interest law
In 1946, he co-founded Cory and Schwartz, now Procopio, Cory, Hargreaves and Savitch LLP, in a small
downtown office in San Diego with Edward Schwartz
When Cory retired after 47 years, the firm had grown to more than 40 attorneys with six broad practice areas, General Business, Real Estate, Tax, Bankruptcy, Trial and Complex Litigation, and Real Estate litigation The firm’s leaders continued Cory’s focus on smart growth after his retirement Today, Procopio has nearly 200 attorneys in seven offices across the United States and is the only AmLaw 200 firm headquartered in San Diego
Cory began his career in the San Diego Public Attorney’s Office, which later became the Legal Aid Society During his career, Cory was recognized for outstanding achievements by the San Diego Volunteer Lawyer Program and the San Diego County Bar Association, of which he was a past president He was also named an Inaugural Fellow by the San Diego County Bar Foundation in 2005 . Cory passed away in 2010
SCHOLARSHIP FOR THE PUBLIC GOOD

Paul Peterson’s “A Life well lived” endures
Paul Peterson was truly a generous man, who strongly believed in giving back to the community He donated countless hours of his time, talent and treasure to community causes, including University of San Diego School of Law’s— Children’s Advocacy Institute (CAI)
As one of the founding members of the CAI Board of Advisors, Peterson dedicated himself to improving the lives of children, especially those who are part of the foster care system . His compassion for children seeking the security of a stable home stemmed from personal experience Having lost his mother at a very young age, Peterson did not like talking about his early days, but he never forgot his turbulent childhood Instead, he acted with determination to create a beautiful home for his family and for the children of San Diego Peterson served in the Korean War and used the G .I . bill to attend the University of California at Berkeley He graduated from Berkeley’s law school in 1956 as a member of The Order of Coif, an academic honor society for the top 10% of the class His tenacity and strong work ethic stayed with him throughout his life He moved his family to San Diego in 1958 and practiced law with Byron F White, and later alongside Sol Price, the founder of FedMart, Price Club (which ultimately merged into Costco) and PriceSmart Price is considered the “father” of the “warehouse” store retail model
The Children’s Advocacy Institute (CAI) is an academic, research and advocacy center dedicated to promoting the health and well-being of children and youth Through its academic program, CAI trains law students to be effective child advocates, providing unique clinical opportunities through the Child Advocacy Clinic . Through its research and advocacy component, CAI represents children
in legislatures, in the courts, before administrative agencies and through public education programs CAI’s goal is to ensure that children’s interests are effectively represented whenever and wherever government makes policy and budget decisions that affect them
After retiring from law, Peterson chaired the CAI Council for Children for many years and was CAI’s largest contributor virtually every year since its inception in 1989 Peterson served on the CAI advisory board and brought his friends and community members along with him on his journey to help shape better lives for children, especially those in the foster care system
Peterson tracked everything the CAI did, guided and supported the work as a founding member of the Council for Children, and was a personal adviser to Professor Robert C Fellmeth, Price Chair in Public Interest Law and Executive Director of the Center for Public Interest Law and the Children’s Advocacy Institute Fellmeth values his lifelong friendship with Peterson and is grateful for the support the CAI received in loving memory of him . Fellmeth notes that “Both Sol Price and Paul Peterson were critical to its (CAI) successful founding Paul’s support was essential to its success in many different ways — from financial help to policy guidance to the morale of all of us — year after year after year . ”
In December 2014, USD School of Law Dean Stephen C Ferruolo announced the establishment of the Fellmeth-Peterson Faculty Chair in Child Rights with the receipt of gifts totaling more than $2 million from a group of donors led by the Price Philanthropies Foundation, the Peterson Charitable Foundation, and Professor Fellmeth

“The generosity of these donors ensures that USD’s Children’s Advocacy Institute will be teaching and advocating children’s rights, and forging the legacy that we shall all leave behind…in perpetuity… forever,” said Ferruolo “We know of only two other law schools that have an endowed child rights program And no other law school has child advocacy operations on its campus, in its state capitol, and in Washington D C . Only USD School of Law . ”
“Paul Peterson’s steadfast dedication ensures that the Children’s Advocacy institute will be well supported into the next generation,” said current USD School of Law Dean Robert A Schapiro “This ongoing commitment to the wellbeing of children serves as a lasting legacy of his compassion and vision ”

I have immense pride in that I have been recognized and supported for being my authentic self and working hard in my community . Thank you for your generosity, I am deeply grateful!”
-Stella Gerson ’23 (JD)
“I look back fondly on my judicial externship with a federal magistrate judge in the U .S . District Court for the Southern District of California Every day that I went to chambers provided me with new learning opportunities and fascinating legal issues to tackle This scholarship will be tremendously valuable to me as it will help fund my last semester of law school As I currently lack a source of income while in school, I work hard to budget, pay my monthly expenses, and come up with enough money to pay my tuition . ”
-Mary Grace Braun ’22 (JD)
“My favorite memory was taking a course taught by the Chief Judge of the U .S . Tax Court, the Honorable Maurice Foley, in Sacramento I stayed at McGeorge School of Law while interning at the Franchise Tax Board . The only reason I was able to study legislation and tax was because of the opportunities afforded to me through the law school at the University of San Diego . As a result of my scholarship award, I will be able to understand how to manage my finances better and eventually have financial freedom in my life I write my scholarships on my resume because it shows that someone else has taken an interest in my success ”
-Darren Ewing ’22 (JD)
“I feel so lucky to have such amazing classmates . We have made so many memories together including pulling all nighters studying, attending bar reviews, and chatting in Warren Hall between classes I am so thankful and grateful for Ms Haida Massoud Mojdehi who donated to my scholarship . It makes a huge difference in my cost of living this year . I am able to take out less loans and more easily afford my textbooks and living expenses!”
-Sheila Vajdi ’22 (JD)

“My first semester as a 1L was definitely the most difficult academic challenge I had faced in my life It also confirmed my desire to become a lawyer With every class I took, I genuinely enjoyed each class . I thought every topic of discussion was fascinating because it juxtaposed logic and reason with human subjectiveness Growing up with a childhood dream to become a lawyer never felt like it was 100% the right thing to do, until I entered a USD law school classroom . My scholarship will allow me to focus more on my studies, graduation, and studying for the bar However, more importantly, I can also start planning for my future in terms of gaining a more stable immigration status in order to be able to spend more time with my family
-Rosa Namgoong ’21 (JD)
“It is an honor to receive the Mike White Scholarship for Excellence in Litigation and the EALLS Social Justice in the Workplace Scholarship These awards have greatly lifted the financial burden of pursuing my degree and have validated the time and effort I have spent pursuing a career in employment law . I plan on becoming a workplace investigator after graduation When employees raise complaints of harassment, discrimination, and retaliation, I will thoughtfully and thoroughly investigate the issues . ”
-Tristan Stidham ’21 (JD)
“I enjoyed my time at the USD Veterans Legal Clinic . I worked with a Veteran who was denied benefits by the VA and helped him draft an appeal It was emotionally draining work, but it was very rewarding to help him get what he deserved My scholarship will help me afford my bar prep course . I can now focus on studying for the bar without the distraction of stressful finances . ”
-Jonathan Greenbergs ’22 (JD)

MILESTONE REUNION
USD School of Law has an annual tradition of welcoming back milestone reunion classes to commemorate the anniversary of their graduation. In 2021, we celebrated twice the number of class years. In addition to the 2021 reunions, we included the 2020 reunion classes who had their reunions virtually. From the 5-year sapphire blue anniversary to the 50-year golden anniversary from USD School of Law, we honored the Classes of 1970, 1971, 1980, 1981, 1990, 1991, 2000, 2001, 2010, 2011, 2015, and 2016.
In-person alumni events at USD were on hold for more than a year at USD. We were delighted that the reunions provided an opportunity for alumni to return to campus and reconnect with each other and their alma mater. The 2021 Milestone Reunions symbolized the law school’s coming back together again after a period of separation.
