Alumnus returns to UCLA to deliver Regents Lecture on the future of Indian country

by Jessica Wolf

As the 2022-23 academic year kicks off, UCLA Law is thrilled to have four new scholars join its faculty.

“UCLA Law has long-hand a vibrant intellectual community with professors dedicated to teaching our students, conducting cutting edge research, and taking seriously our role as a public university” Interim Dean Russell Korobkin explained. “I’m thrilled that our four newest colleagues will help us carry on that tradition.”

UCLA School of Law has received a gift of $4.265 million from the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria. This generous contribution creates two chairs in Native American law that are endowed in the honor of, respectively, Distinguished Professor Carole Goldberg and Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria Tribal Chairman Greg Sarris. The chairs will recruit, retain, and support faculty members of the highest professional caliber, who will advance the study and practice of tribal law.
