The Fall/Winter 2004 issue of BC Law Magazine is scheduled for publication
at the end of January. Here’s a preview of what’s inside.
The cover story is a photo essay called “BC Law Generations.” In
beautiful black and white portraits we capture six families who have multiple
members with Law School connections. Among the photographs are the kissing cousins
of Altanta, a set of twins from Cambridge, two father and son teams, and a trio
of women: grandmother, daughter, and granddaughter.
Elsewhere in the magazine is a profile of William P. Robinson III ’75,
a man who translates poetry for fun and is nicknamed “Lexis” because
he has a mind like the search tool. Robinson was recently appointed to the Rhode
Island Supreme Court as an associate justice after a distinguished career marked
by some high profile media, civil rights, and employment discrimination cases.
Last fall, BC fundraising veteran Marianne Lord joined the Law School as the
new Associate Dean for Institutional Advancement. Her arrival seemed the perfect
opportunity to examine BC Law’s economics and the impact that alumni support
has on students, faculty, and programs. Full of statistics, the story makes
transparent a process that is often misunderstood and outlines many new initiatives
to engage alumni more fully.
Finally, we launch a new feature this issue called “Law Lite,” a
short comprising legal jokes and anedcotes supplied by readers. We hope it will
inspire other alumni to send in their favorite laughs.
