Global Receptions

The Office of Graduate Affairs traditionally hosts "global receptions" throughout the academic year for international graduate students at the Law School. International graduate students are invited to attend one of several receptions that will take place at the home of a Law School Professor during the academic year. Formal invitations will be sent via email during the academic year - students are required to RSVP for these events.
