During the 1950s, he worked in private practice, as a law clerk for the chief justice of the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts, and a professor at BU Law. Morse would later take on roles as a staff member for the US Senate Armed Services Committee and deputy administrator of the Veterans Administration before being elected to the House of Representatives in 1960.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Morse served six successive terms in the House before joining the United Nations (UN) in 1972. For more than a decade, he was one of the highest-ranking Americans at the agency, where he spearheaded large-scale humanitarian efforts, including establishing job-training programs for millions of Colombians and building hundreds of miles of secondary roads in five African countries. He also organized the first UN office to coordinate global famine relief to Africa\u2014an effort that helped save countless lives across the continent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After leaving the UN in 1986, Morse led the Salzburg Global Seminar, a nonprofit organization that inspires current and future leaders to develop innovative solutions to pressing global problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Morse died on December 18, 1994, and was laid to rest in Arlington National Cemetery. The following year, BU Law captured his character in a memorial: \u201cHis extraordinary contributions to human rights issues were performed with down-to-earth demeanor, a sense of humor, a bedazzling smile, and dedication to the notion that one must strive to elevate every life one touches.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-dots\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"headline-2\" class=\"wp-block-editorial-headline record-block-editorial-headline\">Gary Locke<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the late 1890s, several residents of Jilong, China, pooled their money together to send a teenager to America. The young boy, Suey Locke, settled in Olympia, Washington, and took a job as a houseboy in exchange for English lessons, just blocks from the Washington State Capitol. No one could have predicted that a century later, his grandson, Gary Locke (\u201975), would defy odds to inhabit the governor\u2019s mansion and become the first Chinese American governor in US history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image alignfarleft\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/law\/files\/2023\/01\/gary-locke.jpg\" alt=\"Gary Locke ('75)\" class=\"wp-image-97909\" width=\"375\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/law\/files\/2023\/01\/gary-locke.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/law\/files\/2023\/01\/gary-locke-530x636.jpg 530w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/law\/files\/2023\/01\/gary-locke-853x1024.jpg 853w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/law\/files\/2023\/01\/gary-locke-768x922.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/law\/files\/2023\/01\/gary-locke-1280x1536.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/law\/files\/2023\/01\/gary-locke-688x826.jpg 688w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/law\/files\/2023\/01\/gary-locke-568x682.jpg 568w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/law\/files\/2023\/01\/gary-locke-860x1032.jpg 860w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/law\/files\/2023\/01\/gary-locke-1101x1321.jpg 1101w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/law\/files\/2023\/01\/gary-locke-287x344.jpg 287w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/law\/files\/2023\/01\/gary-locke-441x529.jpg 441w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/law\/files\/2023\/01\/gary-locke-573x688.jpg 573w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/law\/files\/2023\/01\/gary-locke-882x1058.jpg 882w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/law\/files\/2023\/01\/gary-locke-1137x1364.jpg 1137w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/law\/files\/2023\/01\/gary-locke-1377x1652.jpg 1377w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/law\/files\/2023\/01\/gary-locke-833x1000.jpg 833w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 375px) 100vw, 375px\" \/><figcaption>Gary Locke (&#8217;75) | Photo by Mark Ostow<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Gary Locke grew up in Seattle\u2019s Yesler Terrace, the first racially integrated public housing development in the United States, and did not learn English until the age of five. He studied political science at Yale University, making his way through a mix of part-time jobs, financial aid, and scholarships, and then pursued a legal education at BU Law. During his second year at BU, Locke landed a Rule 9 internship, a Washington State program that allows law students to represent misdemeanor cases. A year later, he was prosecuting major felonies and capital murder cases in the King County Prosecuting Attorney\u2019s Office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Locke worked as a deputy prosecutor for several years until his ambitions turned to the political arena. He was elected to the Washington House of Representatives, where he served as the chair of the Appropriations Committee. Eleven years later, Locke became chief executive of King County, a role that positioned him front and center with the issues and challenges facing Seattle\u2019s metropolitan area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1996, Locke won the election to the highest office in Washington State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-dots\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"headline-3\" class=\"wp-block-editorial-headline record-block-editorial-headline\">Catherine Mitrano<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Shortly following the terrorist attacks of 9\/11, Catherine Mitrano (\u201989) was part of a select group of federal attorneys tapped to create the US Department of Homeland Security.

A big-picture thinker who knew how government agencies worked (and didn\u2019t work) together, she had spent the previous decade arguing cases before administrative law judges in the Federal Aviation Administration and managing labor and employment matters with the US Coast Guard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In her role as senior counsel at DHS, Mitrano created the Office of the General Counsel and the Office for Civil Rights and Civil Liberties. She also served as a negotiator between merging departments and streamlined the reporting process for legal departments. \u201cThe federal government moved like it had never moved at any time before that date, and it hasn\u2019t moved like that at any time since,\u201d she said. \u201cIt was remarkable.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following three years with DHS, Mitrano served a brief stint at the Federal Communications Commission before joining the US Army as deputy assistant secretary. In 2013, she began working with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), where her first charge was establishing an anti-harassment office to address employment discrimination within the department. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, Mitrano serves as principal deputy general counsel\u2014second in command of the VA\u2019s legal department.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-dots\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"headline-4\" class=\"wp-block-editorial-headline record-block-editorial-headline\">Heather Slavkin Corzo<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Heather Slavkin Corzo (\u201905) grew up in Jacksonville, Florida, where her father served as head of public dental services and her mother directed the county\u2019s dropout prevention program.

So she moved to Atlanta shortly before the 2006 midterm elections to work as a get-out-the-vote organizer with MoveOn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her two-month stint with the political action committee led her to the AFL-CIO, the largest federation of unions in the country, just as a global financial crisis was heating up. Despite having just one class in economics under her belt, Slavkin Corzo soon found herself working alongside legislators such as Elizabeth Warren and Barney Frank to establish the Dodd-Frank Act. The experience of developing sweeping reforms of the nation\u2019s financial system reminded Slavkin Corzo why she became involved in policy work. \u201cIt gave me the ability to engage in forward-looking policy analysis instead of a backward examination of past events.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-end-of-article\">Over the course of 14 years at the AFL-CIO, Slavkin Corzo took on various leadership roles, including director of capital markets policy. In 2021, she left the organization to serve as policy director at the US Securities and Exchange Commission, where she continues to realize the far-reaching implications of her work. \u201cIn day-to-day conversations with staff, I\u2019m reminding them that everyday people have a profound interest in the regulation and oversight of financial markets,\u201d she said. \u201cTheir interests
