DeanAndy Abrams, who will preside at the ceremony, added, “We are incredibly proud of the members of this graduating class, who, over the course of their law school careers, have shown incredibly resiliency and tenacity in pursuit of the knowledge and skills that will help ensure their success in the days ahead.
