Washburn Lawyer, V. 50, No. 1 WASHBURN VOLUME 50, ISSUE 1 Lawyer SPRING/SUMMER 2012 107th Commencement History of Washburn Law Published Alumni Profi le: Parallels of Life and Law in the Game of Chess Our Roots Run Deep The Washburn Law Family WASHBURN UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF LAW ALUMNI MAGAZINE DEAN Thomas J. Romig he completion of another academic year is T a proud event for students, faculty, and staff alike. Students who walked through the law school doors three years ago now depart ready to face new challenges. Although we know future events and strong ties will bring us together again, it can be diffi cult to say “goodbye for now.” The 157 members of the Class of 2012 have left an indelible impression on our law school and on those who work to provide students with a high-quality legal education. In many ways, the students become our family members with whom we share triumph and adversity. Pages 3 through 9 include photos and highlights of the 2012 May commencement. As the Class of 2012 departed, members of previous classes returned, just as family does, to lend a helping hand where needed. Our “cover story” this issue is not one specifi c article but rather many articles interspersed throughout the magazine about returning alumni who participated on a board or committee; provided fi nancial support; and invested time as classroom teachers, guest speakers, competition coaches, mentors to our students, and to additional activities that enhance the value of a legal education. We know there are many more of you who work behind the scenes to secure internships, externships, and employment for Washburn Law graduates or to promote your Law School by sharing our story with colleagues. Washburn Law is a family. And just as family members journey into the world, they often return home to lend Thomas J. Romig a helping hand where needed. Dean and Professor of Law The roots of our Washburn Law [email protected] family tree run deep, thanks to our alumni who continue to help advance our mission.
