Completion of Class of 2007 Gift: ALUMNI WALL

Submitted by Patty Thompson, Commencement Coordinator

Every year a committee of students is selected along with faculty and staff to make plans for graduation. The committee spearheads fundraising projects throughout the fall and spring semesters for commencement expenses such as a guest speaker, a reception or luncheon, and a class gift.

With the suggestion from Adam Phillips (J.D. '07) the student committee members for the Class of 2007 voted to raise money for an Alumni Wall for their class gift. For many years the class photographs were displayed above the student lockers, but the students wanted the photographs matted and framed for display in one of the hallways of the law school.

The fundraising project was a success with additional funding from the UW College of Law for the name plates. Each class photo has a name plate mounted on the wall beneath it with the names of the law graduates. The Alumni Wall is now complete and proudly displayed in the hallway across from the soon to be constructed William N. Brimmer Legal Education Center.
