When more than 40 experts in the law of charitable nonprofit organizations gathered at UCLA School of Law toward the end of 2022, the early fall weather had not yet turned cool, and the warmth outdoors reflected the positive spirit of the occasion.

UCLA School of Law is pleased to welcome back K-Sue Park, who will join the law school’s faculty in January as a professor of law. The move is a homecoming for Park, who served as a critical race studies fellow and lecturer at UCLA Law from 2017 to 2019.

Park comes to UCLA Law most recently from Georgetown University Law Center, where she has been an associate professor of law since 2019.

E. Tendayi Achiume, the Alicia Miñana Professor of Law at UCLA School of Law, has been awarded a prestigious MacArthur Fellowship, the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation announced today. Recipients are selected for their exceptional creativity, their ability to transcend traditional boundaries and their promise for important future advances.
