In the spring of 2006, a UC Berkeley undergraduate named Naseem Bazargan conducted an extensive study of the Suitcase Clinic’s Youth Clinic drop-in center. Informing her investigation was a lengthy and exemplary volunteer record with the Suitcase Clinic, having served with tremendous distinction as Youth Clinic Coordinator and Health and Medical Sciences 98/198 Class Coordinator. Her painstaking research ultimately culminated in her honors thesis for the department of Sociology, a thoughtfully crafted document titled “Chaos and Control: A look into the radical culture of the Suitcase Youth Clinic.” Her work contributes richly to the inherited culture, ethos and intellectual tradition of the Suitcase Clinic.
