Dean’s Message Last year, in our first annual giving effort since the end of our successful 2004–12 capital campaign, the Law School’s graduates and friends continued their unparalleled support. Our alumni participation rate of 53.5% was our second-highest ever and marked our eighth consecutive year above 50%. Our annual giving success has become one of the Law School’s key competitive strengths. During a time of retrenchment in much of higher education, we have been able to recruit and retain outstanding faculty and provide generous support for students entering public service. None of this would be possible without the investments you make in our success. Our students, faculty and staff are profoundly grateful. Paul G. Mahoney, Dean David and Mary Harrison Distinguished Professor of Law Arnold H. Leon Professor of Law
