Kendra Kopelke - UB Professor and Editor of Passager
Keeping Time, edited by Mary Azrael and UB's own Kendra Kopelke and now available on Passager's web site, pays close attention to the details of the lives of immigrants, travelers and those who otherwise are in transition. Many entries, such as "Diary of a Teenager" by Liz Rhodebeck, a journalist and poet from Wisconsin, provide deep insights into the authors' perspective as they struggle with issues that at the time seemed all-consuming.

Jane Murphy, Dean Gilbert A. Holmes Professor in Clinical Theory and Practice
Jane Murphy joined the University of Baltimore School of Law faculty in 1988 with a mandate to expand the school's clinical programs. One of the reasons she has stayed is the school's continuing commitment to clinical education, which closely mirrors her own. "Clinical experiences are the capstone of a law student's education," explains Murphy. "They allow students to apply what they've learned to the actual practice of law. Very few schools have clinical programs that are as broad in scope as those here at UB."
