More than 120 attorneys, students, faculty, staff and alumni took part in October's sixth annual Immigration Law Seminar hosted by ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ Law's Humanitarian Immigration Law Clinic.

Amber Allen L'14 and Haynes Dallas G'05 L'09 will serve three-year terms as the chapter's inaugural leadership team.

Before she graduated in May, Angelique Ryan L'16 traveled to Ethiopia to advocate for a family separated by war, and a top North Carolina television station covered that family's reunification this week at Raleigh-Durham International Airport.

ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ School of Law alumni and staff fielded phone calls from residents of Wilmington, North Carolina, and nearby communities in a June 21 televised program that offered answers to viewers unsure of where to turn for help with their legal questions.

Marissa Kuzbyt L'16 accepted ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ School of Law's highest honor at May's Commencement when she received the 2016 David Gergen Award for Leadership & Professionalism.

On the eve of ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ School of Law's Commencement, graduates and their loved ones celebrated the completion of their legal studies in a program that included recognition of Mark Funkhouser L’16 and Joshua Bonney L’16 for their academic achievements & service.

In his Commencement address to ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ School of Law’s Class of 2016, Judge Albert Diaz of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit encouraged graduates to use their legal education to help "reason, law, and precedent triumph over might, caprice, and whim."

Catastrophic injuries from a 2008 attack offered Deborah Moy, who graduates this month from ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ School of Law, a unique perspective on disability rights, firsthand knowledge of how the American criminal justice system is far from perfect - and a renewed purpose in life.

The inaugural leadership of the new chapter consists of Matthew Groves L'11 as chapter chair and Karima Grady L'13 as chapter vice chair.

Four accomplished ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ School of Law graduates – David L. Morrow II '07 L’10, Jennifer L. Reutter L’10, Alvaro De La Calle L’12 and Elizabeth “Beth” Klein L’12 – were recognized this month for their contributions to the legal profession and support of their alma mater.
