  • Annual Philanthropy Report 2019–2020
    Annual Philanthropy Report 2019–2020 42 MAINE LAW MAGAZINE WINTER/SPRING 2021 A Message from the Maine Law Foundation n behalf of the University of Maine School of Law Foundation Board, we write to send our collective appreciation to our donors and fellow alumni for the successful annual campaign recorded in this report. O Maine Law is a small but prolific institution with over 3,900 living alumni. The school has thrived on the support, loyalty, and continuing enthusiasm from so many of us who received our introduction to the law from classrooms on High Street or Deering Avenue during the past 58 years. Our small school has now grown in stature to become – pound for pound – one of Maine’s most influential institutions with numerous societal contributions, both public and private, from the school’s many and diverse graduates and from the scholarship and community engagement of its faculty. Maine Law’s growing stature was recently confirmed when, with the leadership of Chancellor Dannel Malloy (himself a former Boston College Law professor), the University of Maine System’s Board of Trustees directed that the Law School should now report directly to the Chancellor and to the System’s Board of Trustees in parallel to the seven campuses. It was further confirmed when the Chancellor recruited Maine’s respected Chief Justice Leigh Saufley '80 to serve as Dean. The school’s reputation instantly blossomed – as did the recruitment of new students. New applicants have ever stronger qualifications, including higher LSAT and GPA records. Renewed focus on student success, led by one of the newest professors, Greg Bordelon, was evidenced in what may have been an all-time high Maine State Bar Exam passage rate for Maine Law graduates.
