In Fall 2010, I became one of the first tenured professors in the nation to hold a deanship dedicated exclusively to diversity in a school of law. As the Associate Dean of Institutional Diversity and Inclusiveness at the University of Denver’s Sturm College of Law ("SCOL"), I am charged with strengthening access to the legal academy, particularly among, but not limited to, students and faculty of color. This Essay describes the evolution of my role and the seven principles that currently guide student pipeline and recruitment efforts at the SCOL. These principles help the SCOL focus those efforts, work strategically, and increase the likelihood that desired outcomes will be achieved. I conclude by offering three examples of efforts undertaken by the SCOL in the first six months of my se...
Blue, like any student of baseball history, knows that Robinson was, because of his central role in the breaking of baseball's color barrier, the subject of innumerable abuses and death threats during his initial tour of major league ballparks.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending its regulations regarding the declaration of certified color additives on the labels of animal food including animal feeds and pet foods.

An additional purpose of this final rule is to make these regulations consistent with the regulations regarding the declaration of certified color additives on the labels of human food. The final rule also suggests appropriate terminology for the declaration of certi...
As a children's writer, Hill figures the story of racially motivated victimization has been told often enough. "Instead," he says, "I'm interested how African American identity informs and shapes mainstream culture." He often quotes Ralph Ellison's observation that "whatever else the true American is, he is also somehow black. Hill's South End neighbor Stephanie Seguino joined Diversity Now at the same time; her 17-year-old son attended Champlain Elementary and Burlington High schools with Hill's children. She says his perspective was invaluable to the group. Hill "recognized the importance of white people advocating for diversity," says Seguino, an economics professor at the University of Vermont. "[Laban Carrick Hill]'s contribution was to form a coalition so that parents of color we...
