Oberman joins Santa Clara

Michelle Oberman (DePaul), who’s been visiting at Santa Clara for the past year, will stay there permanently. She’s joined the school as a Professor of Law.

Oberman joined the DePaul faculty in 1993, after earning a B.A. at Cornell and a J.D. and a Masters of Public Health from Michigan. In addition to her work in contracts, she’s known for combining feminist theory with health care law, most notably her book (written with Cheryl Meyer), Mothers Who Kill Their Children: Understanding the Acts of Moms from Susan Smith to the "Prom Mom."

We can’t resist this, though. Which one of these is the California Michelle and which the Chicago Michelle?
