The College of Liberal Arts honors Sydney Berger, a well-respected lawyer in Evansville, every year with a guest lecture about civil rights or civil liberties. Berger worked with local groups fighting for civil rights and labor rights, and he also taught constitutional law at the University of Southern Indiana for almost 20 years. When he died in 1988, the editor of the Evansville Courier said that no one in the city had done more for people who were struggling, such as the poor, the underprivileged, and those who had been denied their rights.
