FIG Faculty: Robert Rocklin
My name is Bob Rocklin, and I am a pro tem instructor in the School of Law. I’m old, so if I included a complete bio, we’d be here forever. Highlights include a bachelor’s degree from the University of California at Berkeley, a law degree from UCLA, and a master’s degree in psychology from UO. In addition, I completed significant doctoral work in psychology here at UO. I have worked as a corporate tax lawyer, an assistant attorney general, an appellate court staff attorney, an Oregon Supreme Court law clerk, and faculty at two different law schools. I have handled appeals in a wide variety of cases.
I’m interested in all things related to criminal justice, especially forensic science, wrongful convictions, death penalty, and anything that involves psychology and law. In the last couple of decades, I have taught all levels of post-secondary students, including graduate students, law students, and undergraduate students. I am currently teaching a course inside the Oregon State Penitentiary.
Labrador Retrievers are the best dogs, and one can never have too many guitars or bicycles. I am truly excited to work with first-year students in a FIG.
