| College of Law Celebrates Commencement 
This month, we celebrated the College of Law’s 119th commencement with 148 J.D. and 27 LL.M. graduates who are now members of our alumni community. Judge James E. Graves, Jr. L’80, G’81 delivered an inspiring and heartfelt commencement address encouraging our graduates to be kind and diligently partake in the “pursuit of happiness” as they travel whatever career path they choose. Chair of the College of Law’s Board of Advisors Marc Malfitano L’78, other Board members, and President of the Syracuse University Law Alumni Association Carey Ng L’02 joined me in welcoming graduates to our diverse and supportive group of alumni from all over the world. During the University commencement on Sunday, I was honored to present Doctor of Laws degrees to Frank Bisignano, Chief Executive Officer of First Data Corp., and the legendary Vernon E. Jordan, Jr., national civil rights leader and public policy advisor who delivered the commencement address that day. I encourage all of our alumni to view the College of Law and University’s commencement programs. Law in London 40th Anniversary This summer, we will celebrate the 40th year of our Law in London externship program. Law in London is the leading summer legal externship program offered by an American law school in the bustling, global center that is London.
