Drake Law's 150 in 150

In recognition of our 150th anniversary, Drake Law celebrates individuals who have best demonstrated the values of the Law School and helped shape Drake Law into who we are today.

While there is no way one list can possibly encompass the many individuals who have influenced Drake Law School in the past 150 years, this is an outstanding list of those recognized by peers, family, students, and classmates.

All alumni, faculty, students, and friends were eligible for inclusion.
