FUNDRAISING FOR NEW LAW BUILDING IN FINAL STRETCH Georgetown Law has had an enthusiastic response from alumni and other supporters in our fundraising campaign to support a new flagship academic building on campus, which will be named Daniel Tsai Hall in honor of lead donor Daniel Tsai, L’79. We are now closing in on our overall goal. Tsai, a Taiwanese businessman, is contributing $30 million to the building, which will house state-of-the-art classrooms, convening spaces with panoramic views of the U.S. Capitol and much more. Other alumni are giving generous individual gifts. A student moot court room will bear the name of David Belding, L’71, who has pledged $10 million. Duke Reyes, L’82, is giving $5 million to sponsor the North Event Room. This campaign has also seen creative approaches to collective gift-giving. Alumni at several leading law firms have made joint gifts to name spaces in the building, as have a number of reunion classes. Donors from our large international alumni network will be recognized in a Global Lounge. Students and colleagues of the late Professor Sherman Cohn, F’54, L’57, L’60, are contributing to a fund to name a space honoring his legacy.
In the past year, Dean Treanor has visited multiple cities around the world, including New York, Boston, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, London, Frankfurt, Seoul, Taipei, Beijing, Tokyo and Paris, to connect with alumni communities and talk about the plans for Tsai Hall. The building campaign will continue until June 30, 2025. To inquire about making a gift to name a signature space, please contact Gene Finn, Assistant Dean of Development, at ejf71@georgetown.edu.
