Summary:When the author first joined the University of San Diego School of Law (USD) faculty five years ago, he was hoping to make good friends, intellectual mentors, and senior colleagues who would help him navigate the institutional life of a faculty member. He was not expecting to find all these qualities in one person, and he thinks a lot of them have had the fortune of knowing how Fred C. Zacharias was that person: someone who is a true scholar, teacher, colleague, and friend -- reflecting what they aspire to be. Zacharias describes himself as a young lawyer dedicated to using law to make a difference, and being inspired by the important contributions of attorneys in American history, starting with the Founding Fathers and culminating in the lawyer heroes of the labor and civil rights movements, such as Clarence Darrow and Thurgood Marshall.
