A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

Kevin A. Murray, Esq.

Greetings:

As President of the Thurgood Marshall School of Law Alumni Association, I welcome you to our Second Annual Legacy Ball.

The mission of Thurgood Marshall School of Law (“TMSL”) is to prepare a diverse group of students for leadership roles in the legal profession, business, and government. TMSL also offers its students the opportunity to expand their skills in leadership, research, and service. For 76 years, TMSL has been a catalyst for initiating courageous conversations and a progenitor of equality, diversity, and opportunity in keeping with the values and ideals of our namesake, Justice Thurgood Marshall.

As a community of change agents, TMSL has empowered the disenfranchised and underserved by preparing lawyers to practice law and to shape social and public policy. In addition, our diverse faculty is a community of prolific and cutting-edge professors and scholars who emphasize teaching excellence and who produce legal scholarship that enriches, embraces, and celebrates an array of legal issues and perspectives.

The mission of the Thurgood Law Alumni Association is to support the alumni and students of TMSL through five distinct areas: alumni/external relations, fundraising and giving, continuing legal education (CLE), alumni communications, and encouraging student scholarship. The purpose of the Thurgood Law Alumni Association is to engage and inform more than 4,000 living alumni throughout the world, to enhance their opportunities and promote their success.

The Legacy Ball was created to celebrate our diversity as an institution and become the primary fundraiser that allows the Thurgood Law Alumni Association to accomplish its mission and purpose.

We are confident that you will have an amazing time this evening! Once again, welcome to our Legacy Ball.

Thank You For Your Support!
