The Statewide Database – Berkeley Law’s Best-Kept Secret!
The Statewide Database moved to Berkeley Law in 2009 from the Institute of Governmental Studies. For most of the past 9 years, we’ve been Berkeley Law’s best-kept secret! We were located at 2850 Telegraph until mid-2017 when we were repatriated to central campus and we are now occupying 3 offices in Barrows Hall. The SWDB […]

Trivia Night – Wednesday, December 19th 5:15 PM to 8:00 PM in Warren
Let the true joy of the holiday season settle in with merriment, food, drink, trivia knowledge, trivial debates (the tenderloin is correct!!!!), Montie being bad at sound levels and radically misjudging difficulty of rounds, and some semi-hyper-competitiveness! Yup, it’s that time again: Trivia Night – Wednesday, December 19th 5:15 PM to 8:00 PM in the […]
