Shari B. Hochberg ’12 knew from the time she was twelve years old (if not sooner) that she wanted to be a lawyer. Choosing Haub Law due to its unique geographical location and proximity to both numerous law firms and the courts, Shari found it to be the perfect fit. Now, as a career law clerk with the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, Shari shares with us why a clerkship is the best legal experience you can get and how no two-days are alike.

Judge Joseph A. Marutollo '10
Magistrate Judge, EDNY
|
|
Haub Law Dean Horace Anderson and several proud members of the Law School joined a packed room for the investiture of Alumnus Judge Joseph A. Marutollo '10 at the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, signifying his distinguished appointment to the federal bench. The ceremony included heartfelt tributes to Judge Marutollo from speakers including Breon Peace, United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York, and Judge Richard J. Sullivan of the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals, demonstrating the esteem that Judge Marutollo’s colleagues have for him. Haub Law Professor Michael B. Mushlin shared his sentiments: “It is one thing for our school to have an alumnus appointed to the federal bench, it is quite another when, as is true with Judge Marutollo, that person embodies all the traits that one wishes for in a judge: intelligence, commitment, simple decency, and a devotion to the cause of justice.”

Special Feature: History and the Law
by Professor John R. Nolon
|
|
Reflecting on Jackie Robinson Day this past April 15, Haub Law Professor John R. Nolon recounts the untold story of how Whitney Young Manor in Yonkers was developed to provide shelter to lower income families. The development, named in honor of the notable American civil rights leader, was the creative vision and determination of Professor John Nolon and Roy Echols of the Yonkers Community Action Program, with the collaboration and support of Jackie Robinson, then retired from his legendary baseball career. For the past 50 years, the housing development has provided vital shelter to approximately 600 individuals and families in need.
“It was a small chance event that resulted in significant change, providing shelter for so many and teaching that our individual actions can count,” writes Professor Nolon. READ MORE >
