Around the Watercooler

Warren Rees is retiring

There are two periods in our lives when we have the most freedom: in college and retirement. Since the former is long gone but the yearning remains, Warren has opted for the latter. After 34 years in the law library profession, 25 of those at Notre Dame, he is retiring at the end of this semester. Warren's last day is December 20.

Thank you Warren for your service to the Law School and enjoy your retirement!

Law School Christmas Family Reception

Everyone enjoyed their time together outside of work, and our young guests were thrilled with a visit from Santa. Thank you to our hosts Marcus and Angie Cole, and to Julie Shook for organizing the reception. Please enjoy the pictures below.
