Board of Directors - Sponsored Events
The Alumni Board of Directors sponsors numerous events throughout
the year. Participation in these events allows graduates to maintain
contact with the law school, their former classmates, and the
Chicago legal community. The Board keeps alums connected to the
law school through two types of programming events: social and
educational/professional.
Social Events
The Alumni Board sponsors the annual Alumni
Awards Luncheon. In 2006, more than 300 alumni and friends
attended the awards luncheon. The event provides a venue for former
classmates to rekindle relationships and to network, and also
allows the Chicago-Kent community to celebrate the accomplishments
of its alumni through the presentation of the Distinguished Service
Award, the Professional Achievement Award, the Young Alumnus Award,
and the newly introduced Honorable Abraham Lincoln Marovitz Public
Service Award. (Please note: This year, the Marovitz awards
will be presented in a separate ceremony in Spring 2008.)
Please mark you calendar for this year's event, to be held on
December 5, 2007, at the Standard Club Chicago. For a list

Educational/Professional
The Alumni Board also sponsors events that allow Chicago-Kent
alumni and students to network. The events are social, informative
and ideal for cultivating strong ties between alumni and friends
of Chicago-Kent. The Distinguished Alumni Speaker series and the
Take a Break series are two wonderful examples of innovative programming
that the Board has founded.
