Celebrating excellence and generosity
2020/2021 Scholarship & Prize Recipients
Celebrating our student’s success and recognizing the generosity of our many donors is paramount for our Law School. Unfortunately, due to COVID-19 restrictions, we are unable to host our annual academic awards night this year. We look forward to returning to this longstanding tradition as soon as possible.
In the meantime, CONGRATULATIONS to all of the 2020/2021 scholarship and prize recipients and THANK YOU to the donors who make these awards possible.
