Bulgaria → Berkeley. Fulbright scholar. If you don't understand the tech, you shouldn't regulate it. Elena Dragusheva LL.M. '26 does both. She studied computer science alongside law so she could shape the rules of emerging technology before it scales, not after. At Berkeley Law, she's working alongside engineers and founders at the place where the tech is actually being built. From a childhood diary entry in Sofia to a global mission in intellectual property and tech policy. This is what it looks like. Fun fact: @uofcalifornia is one of the top institutions producing Fulbright students! #Fulbright #FulbrightScholar #BerkeleyLaw #TechLaw #IPLaw #WomenInLaw #InternationalStudents #Bulgaria #LawSchool #AI #ComputerScience #Innovation Go Bears! 🐻

“My heroes are now younger than me.” William H. D. Fernholz, Jesse H. Choper Lecturer in Residence and Director of Berkeley Law’s Appellate Program, received the Rutter Award for Teaching Distinction today. Established in 1995, the award honors faculty with an outstanding commitment to teaching. A life-changing teacher, mentor, friend, and colleague who reminds his students: before you are a lawyer, you are a person. His student evaluations say it plainly: “Bill is the best.” Fernholz distilled it to three words: “Teaching is hope.” Congratulations, Professor Bill. #BerkeleyLaw #RutterAward
