When Arlene Mayerson ’77 arrived at Berkeley Law, the course she teaches today, Disability Rights, didn’t exist. In fact, neither did the field. But the first steps toward her distinguished career — as a key player in the development and passage of the landmark Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in 1990, then over decades more of pathbreaking advocacy — happened at the law school. “I went to law school to be a civil rights lawyer,” Mayerson says. Berkeley Law, with its ties to the broader Free Speech Movement, civil rights and feminism was a beacon from across the country. As it turned out, “law school just clicked with my brain,” Mayerson says. Tap the link in bio to read more about Mayerson’s career and advocacy in the full story. #BerkeleyLaw #DisabilityRights
