Oakland Alumni Lunch

  • by Kevin R. Johnson

Last week, we had a warm and wonderful lunch in Oakland with UC Davis School of Law alumni. Executive Director of Development and Alumni Relations Karen Charney and Associate Director of Development Taylor Theg joined me for a trip down to the Bay Area.

We had a great group in attendance, which included Robert Kidd '77, Joan Story '77, Judge Gordon Baranco '72, Craig Judson '84, Darryl Stallworth '92, Ayana Curry '00, Maggie Trinh '11, Julien Capers '10, Leila Tabrizi '22, and many others. Together, we heard the latest updates about King Hall.

Assistant Dean of Career Services Craig Compton encouraged the alums to share job opportunities for students with him. I enjoyed the opportunity to talk about all the great things going on at the law school, including the amazing Class of 2026, great new faculty hires, amazing alumni recognition, incredible job data, and more.

I am so happy that the alumni lunch program, which was on hiatus during the pandemic is back in full swing. I look forward to upcoming lunches in Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Sacramento and Orange County.
