BU Law Alumni Association Executive Committee

The BU Law Executive Committee is a volunteer alumni group committed to advancing the School of Law and connecting all members of the BU Law Alumni Association (all individuals with a BU Law degree are members of the Alumni Association). The Executive Committee strives to represent the diversity of the Law School and to engage alumni in all stages of life. The Executive Committee membership year runs from July 1 through June 30 and partners with the Law School’s Office of Development and Alumni Relations.

Mission Statement

The mission of the Executive Committee is to:

• Promote and enhance the standing of the Law School within the legal, academic, and business communities within which Alumni live and work;
• Support the goals, initiatives, and programs of the Law School through close coordination with the Law School Dean (“Dean”) and the Law School Administration (“Administration”);
• Encourage and facilitate fundraising and Alumni contributions to assist the Law School in meeting its financial needs:
• Promote ethnic, gender, generational, and geographic diversity among all Law School constituencies; and
• Serve as a dynamic resource of encouragement, professional enlightenment, and career support for Law School students and Alumni, with the goal of assisting all Alumni to be engaged in rewarding professional employment from the time of their graduation from Law School and throughout their professional careers.
