2009 Annual Fund Committee
The Annual Fund Committee is a vital committee to the School of Law. The committee's goal is to work toward 100% participation of law alumni in giving to the annual fund. The "participation rate" for a law school is often viewed as a measuring stick for alumni acceptance, support and confidence in the law program. Law schools compare participation rates and the ABA collects information on participation rates from all ABA accredited law school. This past year the School of Law was in the top 1% of all ABA accredited law schools for its percentage of alumni participation (52%). To join, please contact Law Alumni Relations .
