Host of speakers slated
for Minority Law Day
The law school's minority stu
dent association and the state bar
affirmative action committee are
co-hosting Minority Law Day at
the University Saturday.
The Minority Law Day is the only
one of its kind in the nation.
Minoru Yasui, a University law
school graduate of 1939, will talk
about his experiences as a
Japanese American citizen during
World War II when he challenged
the curfew law and faced nine
months in solitary confinement in
the Multnomah County Jail.
Yasui, the national chair of the
Japanese American Citizen's
League Committee on Redress,
reopened the case last February.
Jose Mata, director of Oregon
State Bar Affirmative Action pro
gram, will talk about law school
entrance exams and preparing for
law school with Susan Lysek of the
learning resource center.
A Willamette University law pro
fessor and a representative of the
University's Minority Law School
Association will discuss the law
school experience and the job
market.
Derrick Bell, dean of the Univer
sity law school, and Ernie Estes,
from the state public defender's
office for the Oregon State Bar Af
firmative Action Committee, will
give the opening remarks.
Following Yasui's speech at 1:30
p.m. in the law school, a panel of
attorneys from Portland and Lane
County as well as the University
will discuss minorities and the
law.
Oregon's Minority Law School

Nagae, law school professor. The
group works with recruitment, ad
missions, tutoring and organizing
speakers, she says. Russ Aoki, se
cond year law student, is the
chair.
The event is free. Registration
