Keep in touch and stay involved. Here are some opportunities for you to consider:
Serve on an alumni association committee
Committees are always looking for enthusiastic volunteers to make events run smoothly, help support the mission of the law school, and develop programs for fellow alumni.
- Alumni Recognition Committee will be exploring the possibility of new awards to recognize international and young alumni.
- Fundraising Committee is comprised of individuals who assume the role of class captain to solicit their class members on behalf of the annual fund.

Support a student organization
The 40 student-run organizations always look to alumni for advice and assistance. Students in academic competitions particularly look to alumni as coaches and judges. See a list of current student organizations.
Be an informational interview coach
Students benefit from working with alumni as they seek employment. Your advice and suggestions open doors as students navigate the job market.
Arrange a faculty presentation at your office
Our distinguished faculty are available for formal or informal speaking engagements. You pick the topic; we provide the speaker.
Help students plan for their careers
Our career services department is always looking to alumni to help students with their job search and career options. Alumni meet with students for an evening to discuss topics such as government employment, finding a summer externship, navigating the world of private practice, public interest law, working overseas, and networking opportunities.
Share your expertise with a class or clinic
Are you working on an interesting case? Have you set a precedent? Students, faculty members, and clinic directors welcome your involvement and insight.
