Director of Development Michael Spatola has announced a new fundraising initiative, the Boston College Law Partners Program, which seeks underwriting support for events and programs organized by and for students at Boston College Law School. Sponsorship is an effective way for law firms and corporations to identify and attract top talent by supporting student activities and groups. With participation in student groups at an all-time high, the Boston College Law Partners Program provides an unprecedented opportunity to bring participating firms into the vigorous daily life of students, Spatola says. The Law School will recognize Boston College Law Partners for their support with appropriate signage at the Law School, on web pages, and in programs, when available. Participants will also be encouraged to attend some of the events they sponsor. The partners program operates on a point system that allows firms to purchase points at $1,000 each and then to use those points to sponsor one or more events. The hiring partners at interested firms will be sent a program guide containing a menu of sponsorship opportunities. The opportunities may include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Students of Color Retreat
• Women in the Law Conference
• European Union Moot Court
Regional Competition
• Oktoberfest
• Harvest Desserts
• Welcome Back Coffee
• End of Year Ice Cream Social
• Public Interest Law Foundation
Auction Refreshments
• Moot Court Finals
• Annual Tax Conference
• Annual Intellectual Property
Conference
• Law Student Association 3L Gala
• Advocacy Team Travel
• 1L Exam Survival Kits
• Law Revue
• Law Reviews
