On Friday, May 13, 713 graduates from 42 places around the globe joined faculty, family, and friends for the Northwestern Pritzker School of Law’s 2022 convocation ceremony at the Chicago Theatre.

Bradford McGann thinks being the first Black Editor-in-Chief of the Northwestern University Law Review is both an honor and an opportunity. His goal as Editor-in-Chief is not only to open doors for those to come, but to broaden the legal dialogue and drive the law towards more equitable outcomes for marginalized communities.

After three decades of friendship, Ernest Greer (JD ’91) and Jared Bartie (JD ’93) have endowed the Bartie-Greer Opportunity Scholarship, which will support Law School students who bring distinct experiences to their class, such as notable leadership skills or a history of resilience or achievement while overcoming hardship or other personal challenges.

In March, Northwestern Pritzker School of Law welcomed Randall Kennedy, Michael R. Klein Professor at Harvard Law School, for a week of lectures highlighting his scholarship in criminal law and the regulation of race relations.

Michael Choi (JD ’23) and Rohun Reddy (JD ’23) won Best Brief overall in the competition, one of the top three prizes of the day.
