I began Boalt Hall's Jurisprudence and Social Policy (JSP) Program in the fall of 1987 and joined the law school one year later.

When did sexual harassment stop being a joke and start being a wrong? Sometime between the publication of Catharine MacKinnon's Sexual Harassment of Women in 1979 and the Supreme Court's 1986 decision in Meritor Savings Bank v.
