Overview
The Law Alumni Society Board of Managers is a nominated group of alumni volunteers that meets three times per year at the Law School.
The Law Alumni Society (LAS) Board of Managers maintains strong connections with the Law School through business meetings with the Dean on Student Life and Alumni Engagement. Managers’ meetings typically include discussions with current Penn Carey Law students, news from various departments, and updates from the Dean.
Managers serve one three-year term on the Board, with an option to serve an additional three-year term.
The Board also assists in organizing and participating in various volunteer initiatives that serve the Law School, alumni, and current and admitted students. In addition to Board meetings, members enjoy educational lunchtime panels, opportunities to sit in on classes, tours of the Law School, and other local opportunities to socialize and network.
To learn more about nominating outstanding alumni to the Board, or assisting the Board with its aims, please contact Elisabeth Aulepp at eaulepp@law.upenn.edu.
