If you would like to access helpful support materials, please visit our extensive "Help And Support" section Looking back on Fred Gould’s illustrious 47-year career at NC State University it’s easy to assume that he took the direct route to scientific success Sure, he’s a William Neal Reynolds Professor of Agriculture, co-founder of the Genetics and Genomics Academy, former executive director of NC State’s Genetic Engineering and Society Center Max Gardner Award for research making the greatest contribution to human welfare and a member of the prestigious National Academy of Sciences his academic path began with turning down admission to medical school making a snap decision to go to graduate school and living in a bread truck on Long Island Perhaps those early wanderings provided insight for the many students Gould has guided since his former students traveled across the state across the country and from as far away as the Netherlands for a recent symposium and retirement celebration honoring Gould.  “The two most common words I heard about Fred during the symposium were ‘mentor’ and ‘empathy,’” said NC State alumna Jennifer Maxwell a former doctoral student of Gould’s and current faculty member at Elgin Community College in Illinois More behind-the-scenes stories about Gould emerged during the evening’s celebration colleagues and students agreed that Gould is a deep thinker But did you know that he’s also “a bit of a motorhead” Gould was pursuing interdisciplinary research the day he first set foot on the NC State campus.  in ecology and evolutionary biology from the University of New York at Stony Brook where he had applied because he liked the idea of being paid to go to graduate school (through an assistantship) and because a friend had an extra copy of the paper application form.  Gould secured a National Science Foundation postdoctoral fellowship to study how insects adapt to plants’ natural defenses and to insecticides.  I had been living in a bread van,” says Gould who sported a beard and ponytail at the time “I had NSF funding for a one-year project I wanted to do I needed two faculty sponsors to do the research: a toxicologist and biocontrol researcher I wanted to go to Berkeley where I thought I’d fit in with the culture.”  it turned out that the researchers at Berkeley in these two disciplines didn’t get along well Only two other universities had the combination of those two disciplines One was NC State.Prominent NC State biocontrol specialist Bob Rabb met with Gould and then drove him across campus in his Dodge Dart “at about 5 miles per hour” to meet with his toxicology counterpart Saying that before talking about Gould’s project he had a piece of business to take care of with his colleague Rabb handed the key to his mountain cabin to Hodgson so he could take his family on vacation.The cross-disciplinary collegiality made Gould feel welcome He did the NSF project at NC State in 1977 and joined the university faculty in 1979.“It’s been a pleasure being part of a real community,” he says.  says his colleague is a deep thinker who lives by the maxim “A model is a lie that helps you see the truth.”Gould drew on that expertise with Ryan Kurtz Kurtz was familiar with agricultural research He had worked on field trials since age 15 in the Delta of Mississippi and earned a degree from Mississippi State in agricultural pest management.“What I didn’t understand was how to turn biology into math,” Kurtz says “Fred sat down with me and walked me through the math of population genetics It was like scales fell from my eyes.”As vice president for agricultural and environmental research for Cotton Incorporated Kurtz now oversees the industry group’s cotton production research program leading a team of six scientists who explore ways to make cotton farming more profitable and sustainable.“I want to thank Fred for doing work with real-world implications on the farm,” Kurtz says “He tells you the information you needed to hear puts it into context — not what you wanted to hear.” Many of those at the retirement celebration told stories of Gould’s kindness and support Gould’s longtime collaborator on the Genetics and Genomics Academy and the Genetics and Genomics Scholars program puts it this way: “He’s there when things go south.”Sometimes his support came in the form of traditional Jewish comfort food: kugel.“That is community to get one of Fred’s trays of kugel,” says J a research associate who worked with Gould on gene drive research for seven years.“I am eternally grateful to have learned much more about science and about humanity from Fred.”Gould’s support also took the form of a campus garden planted in memory of a longtime staff member.Sara Villani an entomology colleague of Gould’s at NC State will always remember when he met her in Geneva a former student of Gould’s and professor emeritus at Cornell.“The things I learned from my father I also learned from you,” she said Gould’s white 1990 Mustang is his vehicle of choice And he drives faster than the 5 miles per hour that mentor Bob Rabb did that first day on campus A mountain photo shared at the celebration has special significance: He’s on the porch of Rabb’s cabin in Edgemont Clyde Sorenson and Gould made the trip to Crossnore in the mountains of Avery County to teach an Insect Natural History and Field Ecology course Sorenson once let Gould drive a borrowed Mazda Miata Their resulting high-speed trip — on the winding Blue Ridge Parkway — left Sorenson “terrified.” Gould has been known to make a splash by swinging from a rope into a 63 degree mountain stream calling Gould “the grandfather at the top of Grandfather Mountain.” In retirement Gould will enjoy more time with his partner Molly Renda, a former D.H. Hill librarian and exhibit designer, enjoyed working with Gould on “From Teosinte to Tomorrow,” which traced agriculture’s history from the ancestor of corn to the era of modern biotechnology A joint effort of NC State University Libraries the Genetic Engineering and Society Center the exhibit included a quarter-acre corn maze at the NC Museum of Art “Fred loved driving the tractor,” Renda says He also worked on the accompanying seminar and publication.“It was the capstone of my career,” says Renda “Welcome to the world of retirement.”Though Gould has cleaned out his office don’t be surprised if he’s spotted on campus NC State is an equal opportunity institution.

said his track record suggests he’ll do “what’s in the best interest of Wall Street.” Gould’s nomination now goes to the full Senate where it requires 50 or more votes for confirmation he would replace Acting Comptroller Rodney Hood Republican senators sought to ensure Gould is aligned with recent banking agency moves away from reputational risk, and Gould agreed with Hood’s decision to stop examining banks for reputational risk “I think too often reputation risk is used as a pre-text for other motives and I think the regulators have at their disposal other forms of more easily quantifiable and just better understood [Bank Secrecy Act/anti-money laundering] compliance risk,” Gould said during the hearing Gould, a partner at law firm Jones Day, was nominated by Trump in February In a letter prior to last week’s nomination hearing Warren asked Gould more than 100 questions seeking to parse his thoughts on bank regulation cryptocurrency assets and regulatory independence Just before the committee’s vote Thursday, Warren indicated she wasn’t satisfied with Gould’s responses She linked the 2023 failures of First Republic Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank to Gould’s deregulatory efforts during his previous stint at the OCC but said he “flatly denied that loosening the guardrails on these big banks during the Trump administration played any role in the failures.” “This deregulatory gaslighting raises serious alarm bells about his fitness for this key role regulating our financial system,” Warren said when asked what needs to be done in the wake of the 2023 failures Gould pointed to improving bank supervision “There seems to have just been a failure to focus on the material financial risk embedded with that bank’s balance sheet and its unique business model,” Gould said calling the oversight by the California regulator and the San Francisco Fed “deeply disturbing.” Gould told Warren, in a response to her questions he wants to ensure the OCC “does not suffer from similar deficiencies in its basic supervision This includes ensuring that OCC supervision efforts are appropriately focused on material financial risks.”  The Senate committee also approved the nominations of Paul Atkins as chair of the Securities and Exchange Commission and Luke Pettit for assistant secretary of the Treasury Department Also awaiting a vote with the full Senate is the nomination of Jonathan McKernan to lead the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau The banking committee voted 13-11 along party lines March 6 to allow the former Federal Deposit

Bach’s Goldberg Variations The record elevated both Gould and what had previously been regarded as a relatively minor piece of the Bach canon LIFE took readers inside the world of this budding star with a story headlined “Music World’s Young Wonder.” The story described Gould equally talented and peculiar: Gould has…a set of the most earnest eccentricities in the music business Almost everything gives young Glenn trouble His voice gets out of control as he plays and its crooning ruins some of his recordings The story made much of Gould’s mannerisms: “High-strung ball players stepping into the batter’s box have less ritual to run through than Gould requires before sitting down at the piano.” His pre-performance routine included removing the two sets of gloves that he wore to keep his fingers warm and then soaking his hands in warm water Next he took what LIFE described as “circulation pills” before removing his shoes and setting himself down on a special chair Another of Parks’ photos captures the mannerism for which Gould was most famous—that previously-mentioned tendency to hum or vocalize when he was at the keyboard Look at the photo which shows Gould leaning back and laughing He is amused because the producers just played back a recording and he is realizing that he inadvertently ruined a take with his vocal noises All these decades later, Gould’s music continues to fascinate. In 2017 Columbia Masterworks released as a set the two separate records Gould had made of the Goldberg Variations—his debut record in 1956 and a fresh take on the music in 1981, a year before Gould died.

Gould said he agreed with Hood’s decision to stop examining banks for reputational risk and said he aims to ensure de-banking is not allowed in the banking system Gould advocated for allowing banks “to engage in prudent risk-taking.” “In the years since 2008, bank regulators have at times tried to eliminate rather than manage risk, frustrating the ability of banks to fulfill their function,” he told the committee “This blinkered approach to risk management has implications for the cost and availability of credit and its adoption of new technologies and embrace of innovation.” Gould said his top priorities would include “depoliticizing the banking system,” improving supervision embracing innovation and ensuring banks support the economy “I will do everything in my power to ensure the continued relevance of our national banking system and its ability to support our national economy consistent with the President’s vision,” he told the committee Gould said during the hearing that many such activities are “clearly legally permissible,” and he hopes to engage on ways they can be done in a safe and sound manner Gould did a stint as chief legal officer at blockchain firm Bitfury expressed concern over Gould’s record as the OCC’s chief counsel during the first Trump administration worrying that he “may pursue a Wall Street deregulatory agenda block states from exercising their rights to protect their citizens from predatory practices by national banks and let large banks off the hook when they violate the law.”  also said Gould’s current role representing national banks raises questions about his ability to avoid conflicts of interest in leading the OCC In a letter to Gould on Tuesday Warren peppered him with more than 100 questions that sought to parse his thoughts on bank regulation supervision and enforcement; merger reviews; cryptocurrency assets; states’ rights; regulatory independence in the context of Department of Government Efficiency actions; and ethics and conflicts of interest I fear a return to rubber stamping deals,” Warren wrote to Gould on merger reviews “It is especially troubling given that a mega-merger application to create the largest credit card bank in the country Gould voiced support for tailored approaches to regulation and supervision asked what needs to be done in the wake of the Silicon Valley Bank failure and the fact that it was overlooked by both the California regulator and the San Francisco Fed is really deeply disturbing.” the nominee to chair the Securities and Exchange Commission nominee for assistant secretary of the Treasury Department who fielded more questions from Democrats than Gould did pledged to make digital asset regulation a priority “Ambiguous and non-existent regulations for digital assets create uncertainty in the market and inhibit innovation,” he said “A top priority of my chairmanship will be to work with my fellow commissioners and Congress to provide a firm regulatory foundation for digital assets through a rational Subscribe to the Banking Dive free daily newsletter MIAMI-DADE COUNTY – A man has died from his injuries after being shot multiple times early Tuesday morning in Miami-Dade County’s Goulds neighborhood who is also a spokesman for the police department officers responded to the area of Southwest 119th Avenue and 224th Street around 2:40 a.m He said officers found a man at the scene suffering from multiple gunshot wounds The victim was later identified by police as 29-year-old James Darnell Jerome Dukes lives at this residence and was outside with some friends and acquaintances when an unknown male subject arrived here on scene Dukes’ direction and then fled the scene on foot,” Martin said Miami-Dade Fire Rescue transported the victim to Jackson South Medical Center who went to the scene later in the morning told reporters that she was asleep when her daughter called her to tell her Dukes had just been shot ‘He got shot,’ and she was just screaming and yelling,” Dean said “I didn’t understand what else she was saying The relationship between Dean’s daughter and Dukes was not immediately clear Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to call Detective D Anonymous tips can be made by calling Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-8477 Crime Stoppers is offering a reward of up to $5,000 for information that leads to an arrest Sign up to receive breaking news alerts from Local10.com Copyright 2024 by WPLG Local10.com - All rights reserved Amanda Batchelor is the Digital Executive Producer for Local10.com TV Listings Email Newsletters RSS Feeds Closed Captioning / Audio Description Contact Us Careers at WPLG Terms of Use Privacy Policy Public File FCC Applications EEO Report Do Not Sell My Info 1.0 Host Exhibit Copyright © 2025 Local10.com is published by WPLG INC. Jonathan Gould spent roughly three years at the OCC and has focused heavily on financial services throughout his career The Trump administration tapped Office of the Comptroller of the Currency veteran Jonathan Gould to lead the financial regulator according to a document sent to the Senate on Tuesday The document, published by Punchbowl News named dozens of high-level government nominations including Gould who has worked in the private sector since February 2022 He was chief legal officer at blockchain firm Bitfury from that month until September 2022 and has served as a partner at law firm Jones Day in Washington Gould spent about four years in government – one year as chief counsel for the Senate Banking Committee and roughly three years as senior deputy comptroller and chief counsel of the OCC during the first Trump administration “As the former Senior Deputy Comptroller and Chief Counsel of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and over a decade of private sector experience Gould understands the complexities of the current financial landscape and the need for regulators to work productively with industry to meet the needs of the consumers we both serve,” Consumer Bankers Association CEO Lindsey Johnson said in a prepared statement Tuesday night Gould and the OCC as the industry continues to strengthen the banking system to expand opportunities for businesses and consumers alike.” Gould was not immediately available for comment and a spokesperson for the OCC declined to do so According to his Jones Day bio, Gould led the OCC’s legal and licensing team through a period of regulatory revision. His efforts, and those of the 230 people he led, according to his LinkedIn profile included the implementation of the Economic Growth Act which amended provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act by lessening the regulatory burden on smaller banks Gould, like many of President Donald Trump’s nominees, appears more amenable to crypto than the chief banking regulators seen during the Biden administration. During Gould’s previous stint at the OCC, the regulator chartered the first fintech (Varo Bank) and crypto banks (Anchorage Digital) Former Acting Comptroller of the Currency Brian Brooks, Gould’s OCC boss for a time, also worked at Bitfury, as well as Binance.US, and currently sits on the board at crypto-friendly business intelligence firm MicroStrategy, according to his LinkedIn profile The American Fintech Council released a statement Wednesday morning in support of Gould’s nomination “Throughout his time both at the OCC and in the private sector Gould has shown a clear commitment to creating a financial system that supports both responsible innovation and consumer protection,” Ian Moloney senior vice president and head of policy and regulatory affairs at the AFC “By modernizing supervisory practices and encouraging collaboration across regulatory agencies the OCC can create a more consistent and transparent regulatory environment that benefits consumers and financial institutions alike.” The Senate Banking Committee next will likely set a date for a nomination hearing for Gould who needs Senate confirmation to take the OCC role If confirmed, he will replace Rodney Hood the former National Credit Union Administration chairman who was appointed to the position in an acting capacity Monday the FDIC ordered the company to distribute $1.225 billion in restitution to customers overcharged between 2007 and 2023 He brought light into the lives of everyone he met shining brightly with a warm and kind spirit that made all feel at ease leaving behind a legacy of kindness and protection that will never be forgotten Bradley graduated from Fredericksburg High School in 2017 a milestone that marked the beginning of his journey into adulthood He dedicated himself to a career as a security officer at State Wide Patrol His protective nature extended beyond his profession; he was known for standing up for those who could not defend themselves Friends and family alike often remarked on how he would give you the shirt off his back embodying true selflessness in every interaction Bradley cultivated a wide range of interests that brought him immense joy He was passionate about video games and spent countless hours immersed in online adventures enjoying weekends spent at gun shows and exploring different collections or sharing laughter and memories with his little brothers She was truly a man's best friend.  Bradley is preceded in death by his Great-Grandparents Merl and Hansie Ransleben and Roland and Rachel Peckne; Grandfather Edward Williams; and Grandmother Deborah Phillips He is survived by his parents Lynn and Levi Shaw; brothers Bryan and Ashtyn; Grandparents Barbara and John Peckne; Uncles Eric Williams (Christy) Chris Peckne (Panda); Aunt Colleen Jordan (Mark); and countless friends.  While Bradley’s time with us was far too brief he touched the lives of many with his genuine nature and unwavering loyalty His presence will be profoundly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him he will always be remembered as the kind and warm soul who knew how to make others feel safe and loved Workers’ rights in the United States have long been challenged But the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) established after Congress passed the National Labor Relations Act in 1935 has been a constant force for labor protection and conflict resolution In January, President Trump dismissed NLRB board member and chairman Gwynne Wilcox, a Biden appointee, and Jennifer Abruzzo Wilcox sued and was reinstated last week by Judge Beryl Howell of the U.S District Court for the District of Columbia who wrote that the “President does not have the authority to terminate members of the National Labor Relations Board at will and his attempt to fire plaintiff from her position on the Board was a blatant violation of the law.” But with the recent firings more than personnel changes may be at issue a professor of law emeritus and former NLRB chairman discusses the case—and how it sets the stage for a Supreme Court argument which could challenge the constitutionality of the NLRB and the Act itself “stands as an impartial beacon where both labor and management can have confidence and respect for integrity and well-reasoned decision making.” Why was NLRB member Gwynne Wilcox’s firing significant The firing of board member and Chairman Gwynne Wilcox was significant because her position is quasi-judicial with a specific term of office When Congress enacted the 1935 National Labor Relations Act it did so because of its deep dissatisfaction with the performance of courts of general jurisdiction and their poor handling of labor-management relationships which would possess expertise and independence characteristics frequently associated with the judicial process Would the firing have changed the balance on the board The firing of Wilcox reduced the Board to two members It could not issue decisions without a quorum the Board was out of business after the firing The firing of Jennifer Abruzzo as NLRB general counsel was perfectly appropriate as she held a prosecutorial position at the Board and was no different from any other executive appointee who can be dismissed at will by the President Abruzzo hasn’t been reinstated because her dismissal isn’t in question What was Howell’s reasoning in finding the Wilcox firing unlawful because Congress stated in the Labor Relations Act that the President is only authorized to dismiss a board member “upon notice and hearing for neglect of duty or malfeasance in office but for no other cause,” and no hearing involving Ms Wilcox had been held and no cause found other than President Trump’s pronouncement that Ms no board member has ever been dismissed in the 90-year history of the Act the Supreme Court held 90 years ago that Congress could constitutionally restrict the President’s executive authority to dismiss NLRB members notwithstanding the fact that he had appointed them and that the NLRB performs quasi-judicial functions like those of the Federal Trade Commission Commissioners whose protection was deemed constitutional by the Supreme Court because they didn’t perform executive tasks which would bring them within the direct authority of the President the general counsel’s firing was different from board members because of her role as a prosecutor the Supreme Court has adhered to its precedent involving removal for 90 years under a politically balanced statute reflecting competing interests and thus stare decisis mandates reversal of presidential authority in these circumstances You’ve said that members of this administration have asserted that the 90-year-old National Labor Relations Act and the independent agency it established are unconstitutional Would that claim find support with the current Supreme Court this case and/or others will likely go to the Supreme Court While the imperial power beloved by the incumbent president is reflected in the position taken by Trump The “unitary executive theory,” which denies the constitutionality of an independent “headless” fourth branch of government is widely cherished by conservative lawyers and this attitude has manifested itself in a number of the SCOTUS opinions This view finds support in the language of four or five of the Court members have been the “swing members” of the Court The world knows that this is an activist Court Is this an existential case that goes to the heart of labor rights—about the continuation of the NLRB and the lawfulness of the Act then the Act and the rule of law will be impaired Trump’s triumph would rip those gains away What legal recourse would the union movement have The fundamental recourse that it has—self-help and Michigan will legislate if the law becomes moribund or defunct The NLRB is the only game in town for many It’s generally the way through which workers can bargain for better wages and establish a measure of democracy in the workplace I like to think that the Clinton years were one of the best examples The NLRB stands as an impartial beacon where both labor and management can have confidence and respect for integrity and well-reasoned decision making A prolific scholar of labor and discrimination law Gould has been an influential voice in worker–management relations for more than fifty years and served as Chairman of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB 1994–98) and subsequently Chairman of the California Agricultural Labor Relations Board

Law with tenure, Dean Troy McKenzie ’00 announced on December 17 where he serves as the Class of 1965 Professor of Law and where he “has quickly established himself as a rising star.” Gould’s scholarship lies at the intersection of public law and politics with a focus on the legislative process and the consequences of partisan polarization His work has appeared in leading law reviews including Harvard Law Review, Yale Law Journal, NYU Law Review “Law Within Congress,” won the Association of American Law Schools’ Scholarly Papers Prize for best work by a junior scholar “[Gould’s] exceptional scholarly achievements are matched by his dedication to students,” McKenzie said in his announcement “When Jon visited NYU Law this past spring he taught Legislation and the Regulatory State and proved to be an enormously effective teacher in the classroom.… We are thrilled to welcome him to NYU and look forward to the many ways he will enrich our academic community.” Gould earned his JD magna cum laude from Harvard Law School where he served as president of the Harvard Law Review and his PhD in Government from Harvard University He clerked for Judge David Barron on the US Court of Appeals for the First Circuit and served as a special advisor to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs in the Office of Management and Budget.  That's likely the same lyrics Elliott Gould would've repeated back to Elvis Presley after an encounter that riled that veteran actor way back when who can list the likes of The Long Goodbye and Ocean's 11 amongst his acting credits After admiring him from afar throughout his youth the actor eventually got the opportunity to meet the King Of Rock 'n' Roll during the 1970s it didn't necessarily pan out as he'd initially envisaged as he recently recalled in an interview with FOX News "I had always wanted to meet Elvis," Gould gushed "I was deeply involved in musical comedy I was a chorus boy on Broadway — I was brought up and trained that way." "So I asked if we could arrange for me to come and meet Elvis… and I got it." Gould was at the height of his fame at the same time Elvis Presley was performing at the International Hotel in Las Vegas But after only a few minutes in each other's company the actor turned round to Presley and told him to "shut up" After watching Elvis perform in Las Vegas, Gould was taken backstage to meet The King, who was surrounded by his entourage of usual suspects: Colonel Tom Parker and his father "Elvis opened the door," recalled Gould "He had a gold-gilded .45 pistol in his belt But rather than exchange tales of their success stories or admire each other's respective crafts Gould had recently split from wife Barbra Streisand, who he married in 1963 after meeting on Broadway 'Why did you and Barbra break up?' You're two of my favourite people.'" Taken aback by the star's lack of decorum asking someone he'd never met about his marital strife Elvis may've had a genuine interest in Barbra who was one of the biggest stars of the era also He was reported to have been Streisand's first choice to feature alongside her in the 1976 remake of A Star Is Born a role The King seriously considered taking Any chance of starring in it was derailed by Colonel Tom Parker however as his demands for top-billing and a preposterously eye-watering salary meant they looked elsewhere eventually offering the role to country troubadour Kris Kristofferson In light of Presley getting straight to the nitty gritty of Gould's personal life emphasising the control Parker and Presley's father had over his entire life "Your daddy and the Colonel aren't going to let us be alone for too long," he remembered telling Presley "You're a cash cow to these people." "Why don't you come out and just be free Leave Elvis here and come out and be free." Presley didn't heed the advice given to him by Gould and remained under the watchful control of Parker and his father until his tragic death in 1977 at the age of just 42 Sharing some insight into his relationship with Barbra after they split in 1971 Gould reiterated: "She's family." "She's the mother of my son [Jason] I'm devoted to my children and their mother(s)."

Ferguson Professor of Voting Rights at Florida State University she became just the second Black woman to be promoted to associate professor with tenure at the FSU law school Tolson first became interested in a career in law as an undergraduate at Truman State University in Kirksville, Mo., where she earned a Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degree in history in 2001. She then enrolled at University of Chicago Law School where her classes in constitutional law were taught by a professor who would go on to become president of the United States: Barack Obama Tolson spent three years clerking for Judge Rubén Castillo of the Northern District of Illinois and Judge Ann Claire Williams of the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit She then began teaching law as a visiting assistant professor at the Northwestern University School of Law Tolson thanked her three children “for giving me so much love.” “You gave me understanding when my weekends turned into my workdays my workdays extended into work evenings,” she said to her children as they looked on proudly from the front row who said she was thinking of the dean’s father “I feel that my husband is looking down from heaven saying ‘This is my baby,’” Smith said in a brief interview before the start of the installation “I give God all the glory for all the work that my children do.” Tolson pointed out during her remarks that the USC Gould dean’s job involves more than fundraising meeting with alumni and “putting out various fires.” She believes it’s also about protecting and growing the legacy that has been built by those members of the “Trojan network” who came before her “My other role is being the storyteller for the law school — crafting our narrative I recognize that I’m tasked with continuing the story of this beloved law school the alumni who laid important groundwork for us to be able to claim the mantle of being one of the best law schools in the country.” Tolson said she is also thankful for a Trojan network that is built around the idea of service to others with members serving as mentors and adjunct professors speaking at events and “counseling me as I transition to this position.” your attention and your resources in this institution which has allowed us to be the change that we want to see in the world,” she said “Thank you for not forgetting to reach back and lift up the people behind you.” including USC Trustee and former interim President Wanda M who was present and sitting in the first row who was USC Gould’s first female dean and is now a judge on the U.S Tolson said she “stands on the shoulders” of both women who “have made themselves available and have been generous with their advice and wisdom.” Copyright © 2025 University of

Teeth” by Jill Lepore • Bright Lights Big City by Jay McInerney • Old Mr Michael Kelleher: So it’s interesting to me you also are having to manage a lot of these ethical quandaries about using documentary materials about somebody’s life And it’s interesting to me how we apply different rules to what you’re doing if you call it nonfiction as opposed to whether or not you call it fiction Do you have to just put the noise outta your head and just write when you’re working on this stuff or do you have to kind of keep those questions really present in the front of your head as you’re mining the material of another person’s life for what’s ultimately gonna be a piece of fiction or it’s like something to play with and not take too seriously basically I feel like writing is either interesting or it’s not And I think that genre is fun and useful as a tool to play with people’s expectations or to allow greater or lesser degrees of freedom publishing these pieces and publishing them as supposedly nonfiction filtered through Mitchell and so it’s And I think that he could have called Joe Gould’s Secret fiction as well I think there’s probably plenty of people who would disagree with me and say like I think that it’s up to each writer to sort of decide how to use or I think nowadays especially there’s this real thirst for nonfiction Quote unquote where people want to know not only that the story happened They also want the author to have some kind of like specific personal connection to the content And then there’s this dismissal of fiction as like well Therefore it’s not relevant to whatever and I think that really does fail to acknowledge the nature of art and the nature of storytelling There’s this real sort of… what’s the word I’m looking for willingness to believe that somebody can deliver the facts to you unfiltered as long as you say that it’s nonfiction which as anybody who’s ever written anything knows these other separate standards are applied to the nonfiction writer Because if you find out that like somebody made up one little thing And they pull the book from publication and so forth then they’re willing to just let you do whatever you want It also doesn’t acknowledge fiction and like the history of fiction and how a lot of fiction is really close to somebody’s life or actual events or actual people that they know The history of fiction is full of very thinly veiled portraits of whether it’s characters in the book or the author themselves but fiction allows a license to let your your subconscious to come in and play around with there really is this obsession with it that I Kathryn Scanlan is the author of two novels (Aug 9—Fog and Kick the Latch) and one collection of short stories (The Dominant Animal) She won a 2021

Shaw, fundraising began in earnest. Rich and poor, Black and White, from Boston and beyond—those of all backgrounds donated to the cause. Shaw Memorial fund treasurer Edward Atkinson recalled, "I believe that no one was ever asked to subscribe; all the contributions have been of a purely voluntary character, most gladly given."[7] Despite this earnest reaction to the cause the creation of the Memorial stalled for over a decade and Smith passed away during this standstill the committee commissioned sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens to create an equestrian statue to commemorate Col An Irish-born sculptor, Augustus Saint-Gaudens immigrated to the United States at a young age He returned to Europe to study sculpting at the École des Beaux-Arts in France Saint-Gaudens won his first major public commission in 1876 with a monument to Admiral David Glasgow Farragut in New York This well-received work boosted his status as an artist and Saint-Gaudens became a sought-after sculptor When Saint-Gaudens won the commission for the Shaw Memorial there appeared to be a general consensus that the memorial would be an equestrian statue Early drawings and sketches reflect this concept it soon became clear that an equestrian statue did not please interested parties From about 1883 to 1897, Saint-Gaudens methodically worked on the bas relief. To him, working on the monument "became a labor of love."[11] During this time Saint-Gaudens fulfilled other smaller commissions much to the chagrin of the Memorial committee considering the longevity of a public monument like the Shaw: Although the final inscriptions remark on the historic nature of the regiment the original names included only the white officers This later became rectified in the early 1980s At 11:17 a.m. two young nephews of Robert Gould Shaw unveiled the memorial. The crowd cheered, a band struck up "The Battle Hymn of the Republic," and an artillery battery on the Boston Common fired a 17-gun salute. Simultaneously, three warships in Boston harbor each fired a 21-gun salute.[15] Watching the events of the unveiling and the procession of the 54th veterans deeply moved Saint-Gaudens While honoring the past efforts of the historic regiment and its fallen leader, some speakers remarked on the regiment's lasting legacy. Booker T. Washington noted that "this monument [stands] for effort, not victory complete. What these heroic souls of the 54th Regiment began, we must complete."[17] Following the dedication of the Memorial, accolades came from around the country and beyond. Author Henry James, whose brothers fought in the 54th, wrote, "How I rejoice that something really fine is to stand there forever for R.G.S. and all the rest of them. This thing of Saint-Gaudens strikes me as real perfection."[18] Many members of the 54th revered it as a fitting tribute to their fallen leader and comrades. 54th member Burrill Smith Jr. wrote to the Boston Herald that it should be protected: Throughout the 1900s, the Memorial served as a place of commemoration and protest It provided a sacred space for veterans of the famed regiment to remember their fallen comrades It became a site of demonstration as activists fought for civil rights it continues to uphold the regiment's ongoing legacy of fighting for social justice [1] Kathryn Grover, To Heal the Wounded Nation's Life: African Americans and the Robert Gould Shaw/54th Regiment Memorial (Saint-Gaudens National Historical Park [2] As quoted in Grover [3] Grover [4] Grover [5] Grover [6] Grover [7] Grover [8] Grover [9] Grover [10] Grover It is unclear whether or how Saint-Gaudens compensated the Black men he used as models for the soldiers It must also be noted that in correspondence the artist used demeaning and racist language when recounting his work with these models Please see Grover's work for a more comprehensive discussion on his language and possible views [11] Grover [12] Quote retrieved from Saint-Gaudens National Historical Park's webpage The Shaw Memorial [13] Grover [14] Grover [15] Grover [16] Grover [17] Grover [18] Letter from Henry James to Miss Frances R.
