Event | 09.20.08, 12:00 AM UTC - 12:00 AM UTC

Over the past twenty years, the alumnae Celebrations have drawn HLS women from all over the world from a vast range of fields including law, business, academia, government, politics, non-profit work, and journalism and the arts, to name just a few. Celebration 55 is the first alumnae Celebration since Dean Elena Kagan '86 became the Law School's dean and the first to focus on a particular theme: women and leadership in all its many guises.

Ashley Riveira is one of the panelists at this celebration. The topic is "Feeding the Pipeline: Strategies for Training and Retaining Women."

"The Tide is High: New Guidance on Sea-Level Rise," The Bar Association of San Francisco

Jon Welner will be interviewing Larry Goldzband, the Executive Director of the San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission (BCDC), on the Commission’s new plan to prepare the SF Bay Area for sea-level rise. BCDC is the agency responsible for permitting all development on the shoreline of San Francisco Bay. On December 5, 2024, the BCDC adopted the Regional Shoreline Adaptation Plan (RSAP). The RSAP is a region-wide plan for the San Francisco Bay shoreline that guides the creation of coordinated, locally planned sea level rise adaptation actions that work together to achieve a regional One Bay Vision. This includes BCDC’s guidelines for how local governments must meet the requirements of SB 272, a new State mandate that requires all local governments along the shoreline to prepare a Subregional Shoreline Adaptation Plan by 2034.
