Dear Friends, What an extraordinary year it has been for Tulane Law School and our Law Firm Challenge. I am deeply grateful for the remarkable commitment shown by our alumni and law firm partners, whose generosity continues to strengthen our institution and shape the future of legal education. Your support goes far beyond philanthropy. Through mentorship, recruitment, advocacy, and financial investment, you are helping Tulane Law remain agile, innovative, and responsive to the evolving needs of our students and the legal profession. This year the Law Firm Challenge once again demonstrated the power of collective leadership within our alumni network. Your participation reflects not only a dedication to Tulane Law’s mission, but also a shared belief in preparing the next generation of legal leaders to thrive in an increasingly complex world. I’m excited to share that 268 alumni from 13 firms came forward to support Tulane Law School! Because of your continued partnership, we are able to expand opportunities for students, invest in academic excellence, and strengthen our standing as a leading institution for legal education. I am especially grateful to our Challenge Chairs for their outstanding leadership and to every participating firm for helping make this year’s campaign such a success. Your efforts embody the spirit of service, excellence, and community that define Tulane Law. Enclosed, you will find this year’s Law Firm Challenge report, including firm participation results and recognition of our outstanding contributors. It is a privilege to serve this incredible community, and I look forward to continuing our work together as we build an even stronger future for Tulane Law School. With warmest regards,
Marcilynn A. Burke Dean and Mitchell Franklin Professor of Law
