Letter from the President of the
Law Review Alumni Association
In case you missed it last time (or the
time before): THANK YOU!! For all who
have given and continue to give to the
Law Review Endowment Fund, we cannot
thank you often enough for your support.
Despite the recent economic downturn,
we are pressing forward and making
tremendous strides toward our goal to
provide stipends for the law review editors.
We’d also like to thank everyone who attended the law
review dinner this spring, the various symposia, and the
recent 20 th anniversary celebration. For those of you who
were unable to attend any or all of these events, we do
realize that many times there just aren’t enough hours
in the day. Whether it’s work or family, we understand
the demands on your time, really we do, which is why it
means so much when we get to see you out and about.
If you were able to attend even a single event, your
participation as an alumnus has been key to the success
of the Texas Wesleyan Law Review Alumni Association
and has facilitated its growth over the last few years.
As part of this growth, we are reinventing the LRAA and
fi nding new ways to support the law review. Monitor
your e-mail and visit our web site (law.txwes.edu) for
updates on how you can get involved with the law review
community. More importantly, give us your feedback
and tell us if you might be interested in the day-to-day
planning process of future alumni events.
In the meantime, you can participate RIGHT NOW —
the law review needs your help in identifying hot new
legal topics and noteworthy case law. They also need
mentors, so please speak up if you would be interested
in mentoring a law review member in your area of
expertise. Feel free to e-mail me or Connie Hall, the
current editor-in-chief, at EditorInChief@law.txwes.edu.
