Don’t miss out: NUSL’s Alumni/ae Weekend is May 13-14, 2005.
There’s still time to join us!
Many of us are looking forward to seeing you at the upcoming
alumni/ae events in a few weeks. Our Friday night reception at Vinalia
Restaurant and Lounge is a more low-key event in place of the gala this
year and offers a chance for all graduates to socialize and enjoy good
wine and hors d’oeuvres. This should be great fun!
On Saturday morning, we also offer a free breakfast and incredible line-up
of panelists for all graduates and their families. The Prisoners’
Rights Clinic is hosting a celebratory lunch commemorating the 25th anniversary
of the Prisoners’ Rights Clinic and will offer guests a chance to
learn about and celebrate their accomplishments to date. Of course, if
it’s your reunion year, you will want to celebrate with your classmates
at the Omni Parker House reunion dinner on Saturday evening.
Please keep reading and make your reservations today (you can do this
easily online). I look forward to chatting with you in a few weeks.
