Paul Model

Paul Model attended Hampshire from 1975 to 1979 and is a member of Hampshire's Board of Trustees. While Paul was at Hampshire he worked with Professors Margaret Cerullo and Lester Mazor. Paul's Division III was titled "Outlawry and Festival: The Communal Practice of Public Order".

After Hampshire Paul went to Harvard Law School, from which he graduated in 1982. Paul worked at a large Wall Street law firm before starting his own practice in 1993. He has been in solo practice since then. The primary focus of Paul's practice involves nonprofit organizations and early stage companies, most of which work in the fields of pharmaceutical development, health care technology and contract research. His clients include a nonprofit product development partnership that is a leader in the field of HIV/AIDS prevention.

Paul has stayed in contact with Hampshire since he graduated, and enjoys coming to campus to give informal talks to students about his work. Topics have ranged from his first talk to the Law Program about large bankruptcy cases in 1992, to open source biotechnology and clinical trial ethics in more recent years. Paul has been impressed by the turnout at these events and by the quality of the questions asked by students.

Paul joined Hampshire's Board of Trustees in February of 2009. He serves on the Finance Committee and the Enrollment Committee. Paul is committed to sustaining Hampshire as a unique school offering a first rate education, and he believes that Hampshire has real importance to the future of American higher education as a whole.

Paul lives on the Upper West Side of Manhattan (where he grew up) with his wife, his daughter and his son. He has an office in Rockefeller Center with a view of the skating rink and the Christmas Tree.

Paul is always happy to hear from people at Hampshire, especially students. However, he has not put his real email address in the box at the right because he is worried about spambots.
