The Bernard Moses Memorial Lectureship in the Social Sciences was established by the President and the Regents of the University in 1937. The lectureship honors the memory of the late Bernard Moses, who taught all of California's social sciences courses for his first seven years at the University. From his classes grew the Departments of History, Economics, Political Science, and Jurisprudence. University of California, Berkeley Professors Eugene A. Hammel, Department of Anthropology, and George Lakoff, Department of Linguistics, delivered recent Bernard Moses Memorial Lectures.
