During her 35 years with baby直播app Law鈥檚 William A. Wise Law Library, most recently as associate director of baby直播app services and research, Jane Thompson has witnessed and taken part in many rewarding partnerships between law school staff and baby直播app. As a tribute to these collaborative relationships, Thompson, who retired on Jan. 4, 2022, has established a fund to help staff further their educational pursuits.

The Matthew C. Zafiratos Fund for Staff Education honors Thompson鈥檚 longtime colleague and friend Matt Zafiratos, the Wise Law Library鈥檚 baby直播app services assistant for the past 15 years, for his outstanding service to the library and law school, intellectual engagement, and compassion.

鈥淚 am overcome with gratitude for the fulfilling career and opportunities CU has afforded me over the past 35 years, and even more for the supportive community of law baby直播app, staff, and students with whom I鈥檝e had the privilege to work,鈥� Thompson said. 鈥淭he purpose of the fund is to express my deep appreciation to all baby直播app Law staff, encourage lifelong learning, and assist staff in achieving their educational goals and aspirations."

Thompson began her career at the Wise Law Library as an instructor and head of public services in 1987 and transitioned to head of baby直播app services in 1994. She was later promoted to senior instructor and associate director of baby直播app services and research. During her long tenure, Thompson helped oversee the library鈥檚 migration from a card catalog to several iterations of online catalogs, and she created the library鈥檚 first website homepage. She was instrumental in developing the library鈥檚 physical collection and research databases, and in curating digital collections, including the baby直播app scholarship collection, David H. Getches and Getches-Wilkinson Center archives, and Arizona v. California litigation.

鈥淚 am grateful and thrilled that our colleague and longtime baby直播app member Jane Thompson has decided to pay it forward by creating the Matthew C. Zafiratos Fund for Staff Education with a very generous gift to honor her time at baby直播app Law,鈥� Dean Lolita Buckner Inniss said. 鈥淭he staff is the backbone of baby直播app Law. They are the key to our success and our future.鈥�

鈥淓arlier in my career I was fortunate to secure funding for my education from a variety of sources: jobs, local grants, student loans, partial scholarships, etc.,鈥� Thompson said. 鈥淚 hope this fund can be one of those sources for our staff, whenever the desire and need arise.鈥�
