SCHOOL OF LAW NEWS

INTRODUCING … SUPRA SOCIETY!

Liz Drotning Hartwell ‘06 submitted the winning entry in this spring’s “Sustainer Program Naming Contest.” The sustainer program, through which alumni can make automatic monthly or annual gifts to the law school, will now be known as the Supra Society. The word supra is Latin for “above” and is a legal citation signal used when a writer wants to refer a reader to an earlier-cited authority. Become a member of the Supra Society at stthomas.edu/ law/give .
