Thank You, Graduating Class of 2020 Graduating Class Program
Committee Members
Members of the Class of 2020 came out with great
enthusiasm to demonstrate their commitment to the Law Lara Sami Alkarim
School and celebrate their class’s legacy. In place of the
Sofia Gomez Bautista
traditional class gift, the Class of 2020 participated in the
inaugural Gibson Graduation Challenge. Thomas Brown Jr.
Cristina Nicolle Gier Craig
Each student who took the Gibson Graduation Challenge
Joshua Craig Devorkin
committed to making a gift to the Law School for the four
years following graduation. Meg Gibson Revord (JD ’87) Chloe Edmonds
donated to the Law School in each participating student’s Walter Garcia
name and allowed students to direct the donation to the
Usama M. Ibrahim
student organization, journal, or Law School fund of their
Brian Christopher Ingram
choosing.
Charles Jordan Isaacs
Through this challenge, students had the opportunity
Paul Anthony Jones II
to make philanthropic decisions that aligned with their
interests and support the organizations with which they Nikita Kulkarni
were involved. Their future support will benefit students Amanda Laucher
and the Law School’s programs in the years to come. Douglas B. Lavey
We appreciate the Class of 2020 for their many Yoon Hoo Lee
contributions to, and investments in the Northwestern Lays Lima Dutra
Law community. The Law School is truly stronger for Alexander Edward Mace
their support.
