Our Alumni HIS is an invitation to those of you who graduate, to become members of the Alumni Association of the Northwestern College of Law. Each year it becomes a greater honor to be an alumnus of this school. As time passes, its graduates are becoming well and favorably known among the lawyers of this State. It is natural that this should be so. There must be an added bit of courage and persistence to a man who has wrought his LL.B. brand from the evening hours while working for his living during the day. There must be an advantage to studying law at Northwestern College of Law where every instructor is a practicing lawyer chosen for his brilliance in the subject taught. There must be an advantage in learning from a large faculty of successful men who can give the theory of the law and yet temper that theory with years of actual practice in the science they teach, but, whatever the reason, both the college and its graduates are forging ahead, and your Alumni Association is the contact medium between your school and these gradu- ates of the various classes. O. C. Roman .fllmnni Pn-.vidrul The Alumni Association naturally keeps alive friendships formed in school, and, in addition thereto, gives the older graduates the pleasure of meeting you of 1930, and, in turn, gives you the opportunity of becoming acquainted with the old-timers. At first glance, it might not seem advan- tageous to you to meet these old-timers, but some of said veterans, through diligence in the practice, have developed and acquired nonbreakable con- tacts and nondemurrable complaints available for your study Cexperience would suggest that, so far as possible, pleadings drawn by the class of 1922 should be avoided as modelsj, Seriously, though, the association is con- stantly working for its members and the school. The next annual meeting will be held in September, and each of you joining at or before that meet- ing will have the pleasure of voting for the re-election of our very fine and capable secretary, to-wit: Wilson H. Scott. Mr. Scott has served in this office for a number of years, is sincerely interested in his fellow man, and, through close cooperation with the registrar, has been able to place the feet of many young lawyers on the bottom rung of a very tall and, I almost said, shaky ladder. 7 IL'f'Il,fj'-lllllt'
