Cal Football and Reconnecting with Alums

Last weekend, I had a surprise as I visited with friends at a Cal football game at Memorial Stadium in Berkeley. Behind me were two faithful UC Davis Law alums, Melissa Jones '99 and Greg Fisher '98, and their daughters. One of them, Elise, is a first-year at Cal and lives in the very same dorm complex that I lived in years ago.

A former civil procedure student of mine, Melissa serves as managing partner of the Stoel Rives law firm. She served a term on the King Hall Alumni Board and is a big supporter of the law school. Like quite a few couples who attended King Hall, Melissa and Greg met during law school.

Although it was not the night for the home team, I had the opportunity to reunite with this wonderful King Hall family.
