From the PresidentBAR-0-METER - JUN 2023 Page 3Aaron BreitenbachAs President, you know your time is running short when Virdena asks you to pick a song to accompany the year-in-review slide show. Fortunately, for those who will attend the Installation Dinner, I reluctantly agreed a 10-minute BarryManilow medley didn’t fit the occasion. Some would say that’s the first good decision I’ve made this year. Kidding aside, I look back on the past year and worry I didn’t do enough. While the position as WBA president istraditionally more pomp than circumstance, it comes with an expectation that you leave the place at least as well as youfound it. As someone who owes so much to this organization due to the love and friendships I’ve found from itsmembers, I felt honored to fill this role and continue the WBA’s traditions and service to the legal profession andbroader community. Of course, I started the year well aware of the gathering storm clouds fueled by several years of declining membershipand CLE revenue. Instead of using these columns to spread doom and gloom, my hope was that warm messages of funand fellowship might reverse those trends and bring a little sunshine back to the WBA’s financial forecast. I encouragedus all to remember the good times we shared in the not-so-distant, pre-COVID past and our shared responsibility tosupport an association that has survived for over a century. And while participation in luncheons and events didimprove, I’m sorry to report our bottom line has not. The Great Retirement and continued challenges in bringing new lawyers to Wichita and to the WBA means membershipis unlikely to dramatically improve in the foreseeable future. The CLE Commission’s decision to maintain the COVID-erafreedom to attend continuing legal education remotely and on-demand and the amount of free CLE (particularly ethics)approved for Kansas attorneys have significantly eroded the ability for the WBA and most other bar associations tocompete in the marketplace. But for the largess of our Federal government through programs like the PPP “loans” andmore recent Employee Retention Credit, the WBA would be on the brink of insolvency. I had hoped to grow ourselves out of the problem, but the past year has re-illustrated the fact that hope is not astrategy. In light of this, the Board has authorized our executive director, Virdena, to take dramatic steps to cut theWBA’s expenses. As I’m writing this, much remains to be decided, but everything is on the table. These conversationsand decisions will affect those who work for the WBA and the relationship we have with our fellow members andcolleagues with whom we share the Sedgwick County Law Center. Given the sensitive nature of these topics, it wouldnot be appropriate to forecast every conceivable outcome, but I trust Scott and the incoming Board to assist Virdenathrough the hard choices to come for the short and long-term sustainability of the WBA. Due to the timing of membership renewals, the first of these difficult choices has already been made. Unfortunately, wemust increase dues across the board for 2023-2024 by $20. While we are committed to cutting our overhead, somefixed costs will remain. We recognize this increase is on the heels of a $10 increase last year, but the Board and I areasking more of all members at this difficult time. As I wrote months ago, we cannot take for granted the Wichita Bar Association will always exist. If we want a place forpractice area committees and other committees vital to the health of our profession (Service to the Bar, LawyerAssistance, Ethics, etc.) to exist and meet, we need the WBA. If we want an opportunity to develop healthy relationshipswith lawyers within and beyond our firms and areas of practice, we need the WBA. If we want someone to speak onbehalf of our profession and its role in civil society, we need the WBA. And that is my final message to you as president. We need the WBA, and the time has come for us all to do our part tosustain it for our generation and those to come. When your membership renewal notice arrives, don’t put it aside.Please fill it out and respond as soon as you can. In addition to membership dues, for those who can, please considertaking the additional step of becoming an individual or firm sponsor at any level you can. I will admit I’ve never been anindividual sponsor. I’ve just mooched off the good name of the FLOWBA. While that will continue for as long as Joni willlet me in many other ways, I have decided to get off the sidelines and become an individual WBA sponsor in the comingyear. I hope you will join me. We have all clearly been cursed to live in interesting times, but we cannot shrink from the moment. Now is the time toensure this association will endure. Now is the time for us to add our names to those prior pillars of the Bar that wehear awards named for. Now is the time for us to do our part, for, together, we are the WBA. The Time Has Come

In line with the American Bar Association 2023 Law Day theme, this year’s theme for the postercontest was “Cornerstones of Democracy: Civics, Civility, and Collaboration.”All 11 submissions utilized wonderful artistic expression to convey the students’ ideas and messages aboutthe judicial branch. This statement is particularly apt for the posters submitted by award recipients. The firstplace award winner was Vivian Nguyen. Isabella Ahmed and Liberty Thompson placed second and third,respectively. All three students attend Northeast Magnet High School.The award recipients were honored with a pizza party and the presentation of their framed posters.

2023 Judge Gregory L. Waller Public Interest Legal FellowsBAR-0-METER - JUN 2023 Page 5My name is Jade Morgan, I am from Atlanta, Georgia but havemade one of my best decisions thus far to begin a new journey inWichita, Kansas. I aspire to serve the state of Kansas, specificallythe city of Wichita through working within the public sector of thelegal community. One of my biggest passions is advocacy. Havingthe opportunity to represent those with little or no voice bringsme purpose beyond measure. It is my honor to have theopportunity to become a Waller Fellow and indulge myself in alegal community filled with so many successful and passionateindividuals! I am currently finishing up my last year of law school at WashburnUniversity School of Law. I was born and raised in Wichita, Kansas,and I attended Wichita State University for my undergraduatedegrees. I graduated from Wichita State University with twobachelor’s degrees—the first, with a major in Criminal Justice andminor in Psychology, and the second with a major in HomelandSecurity and a minor in Anthropology. I always knew I wanted tobe a lawyer—I remember when I was around five years old, Iwould make my siblings play court with me. Throughout my time in law school, I served as the Vice Presidentof the Moot Court Council and promoted the opportunity tocompete, improve, and learn better advocacy skills to otherstudents. I also served as the Secretary of the Christian LegalSociety, an organization that provides students a place forfellowship with each other during the stress of law school. I’ll be graduating from Washburn University School of Lawthis May, with my Juris Doctorate and a certificate in Law & Jade MorganNoelle RelphGovernment. This past summer I worked with the Sedgwick County District Attorney’s Office andexperienced what it was like to work as a criminal prosecutor. I even got to participate in a jury trial alongwith some very skillful attorneys! Earlier this year, I happily accepted a post-graduation position with theSedgwick County District Attorney’s Office and can’t wait to start my legal career with them this fall!
BAR-0-METER - JUN 2023 Page 6Law Day & Awards LuncheonThe WBA hosted this year’s Law Day and Awards Luncheon on May 10, 2023, at the Lotus Hall Meeting Roomat Botanica Gardens. May 1 is recognized throughout the United States as “Law Day.” First proclaimed by President Eisenhower in1958 and later codified into law in 1961, Law Day has grown into a nationwide effort to educate the publicabout the role of law in our country.

This year’s theme was “Cornerstones of Democracy: Civics, Civility, and Collaboration,” which focusedon rebuilding trust in our institutions, respect for one another, and emphasizing our willingness tocollaborate to address the challenges that face our nation. On a local level, many Wichita lawyers volunteered to give presentations to students in classroomsthroughout the city. The WBA also sponsored its second poster contest where local students submitted artexemplifying the theme for the year.
