Light the World

Light the World

With the Light the World Campaign entering its final stretch, BC Law is experiencing enormous success.

       

The Law School soared past its $50 million goal a year ahead of schedule, and recently surpassed $60 million. Most importantly, the campaign has positioned BC Law for remarkable achievements, having added four endowed, named professorships; enhanced its generous need-based and merit aid to ensure that a legal education is accessible to talented students from all backgrounds; and expanded the amount and types of funding for those pursuing public service careers. Light the World will draw to a close on May 31, 2016, after which we look forward to celebrating the broad participation of our many generous alumni, parents, and friends.
