The University of California, Berkeley, Law School has launched the Berkeley Judicial Institute (BJI), which examines judicial integrity, ethics, impartiality, political influence, and the inherent stresses of being a judge. It will also focus on other important issues affecting the administration of justice. Jeremy D. Fogel, who has served as the director of the Federal Judicial Center in Washington, D.C., will become the program’s executive director. During the grant term, the BJI plans to provide education and resources for jurists and help faculty and students gain a better understanding of how the judiciary works.
