GREETINGS FROM
PRESIDENT OLIAN
Congratulations to the Class of 2021 as we celebrate
your achievements and this life-changing milestone.
I know you are well prepared to make your mark in
service to the law, in leadership for your communities,
in advancement of social justice.

Your many talents and sense of purpose will touch
countless lives. As graduates of the Quinnipiac
University School of Law, you have been taught and
nurtured by a distinguished faculty and a committed
staff, and you have learned much from each other.
Please stay connected to the Bobcat family and draw
upon the many friendships you have formed here.

This day is deservedly shared with your families,
friends and others who have contributed to your
success. The anticipation and wonder, the talents
and curiosity, the confidence and commitment—
it all comes together at this moment. Enjoy the
celebration and know that all of us at Quinnipiac are
cheering you on, with pride.

Best regards,

Judy D. Olian, PhD
A MESSAGE FROM
THE SCHOOL OF
LAW DEAN
Congratulations to the Class of 2021. As you
embark upon your careers, I’m confident that you’re
graduating fully prepared for the responsibilities that
lie ahead, whether you’ll be working at a law firm,
clerking for a judge, or lending your voice to the fight
for social justice.

So much has happened during your time at
Quinnipiac; collectively, we have responded to
the COVID-19 pandemic and a newly energized
movement for racial justice that has swept our
nation. Through it all, you’ve worked hard, you’ve
mastered the law, and you have grown—emotionally
and intellectually—to become “whole lawyers” who
will serve your clients and communities effectively,
ethically, and empathetically.

On behalf of the entire faculty and staff at Quinnipiac
Law, I wish you long and meaningful careers and
much success.

Kindest wishes,

Jennifer Gerarda Brown
