NDLS Communicator
Week of 5.13.19

Good morning! We made it to the end of the semester! This weekend we will award degrees to 226 new Notre Dame Lawyers. Thank you to the entire Notre Dame Law School community for the investment you make in our students every day. It is because of each of you—whatever your role is here at ND Law—that we are able to educate a different kind of lawyer. Congratulations to our ND Law class of 2019!
