Capital campaigns are necessary to meet extraordinary challenges.
A first-rate legal education in the 21st Century requires dramatically more complex and extensive programming than even twenty years ago, and the bar has been raised significantly to compete for exceptional students and faculty. This rapid transformation presents an extraordinary challenge for the Law School to move ahead of the curve and special funding to take us there. The imagination and generosity of alumni and friends have forged our distinguished history. The dramatic elevation of our academic stature through creation of 29 chairs and distinguished professorships would have been inconceivable without the capital campaign of a decade ago. Our dedicated Partners in Excellence provide essential annual support, so we strongly encourage continuation of your annual gifts during the Campaign period.
