Suffolk University
Sargent Hall
120 Tremont Street, Boston
Many thanks to those who joined us for our fifth annual All Rise event, where our community networked, united, and honored Suffolk's rich history of alumnae trailblazers and changemakers. The All Rise event celebrates remarkable alumnae who have made lasting impacts in the Suffolk Law community and in the field of law.
Our annual alumnae speaking program was led by partner, Carol Starkey JD'88 and associate, Dayana Donisca JD'21 colleagues from the law firm of Conn Kavanaugh. They hosted a "fireside chat" to discuss the importance of navigating industry challenges and opportunities resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic, including strategies to maintain intentional relationships. We also honored this year’s Marian Archer Alumnae Trailblazer and Professor Catherine T. Judge award recipients.
Our program this year was a hybrid event with attendees joining in-person or virtually.
