It’s game-time! As proud alumni of Minnesota Law, we are excited to lead Team East in Minnesota Law’s first March Madness Campaign and compete against the other regional alumni teams, Team Central and Team West, for this year’s championship title.
We are passionate about Minnesota Law and the impact it has had on our lives, and are committed to ensuring that future students have the same, if not greater, opportunities as we have had.
As part of the Campaign, we have chosen to champion the Law School Fund. The Law School Fund provides vital, unrestricted support for every area of Minnesota Law. Funds are directed where they’re needed most—whether that be providing more scholarships for exceptional students, enriching experiential learning opportunities, facilitating groundbreaking research, or strengthening faculty. These unrestricted contributions are crucial to maintaining and enriching the Minnesota Law experience.
Now is our opportunity to come together as a regional alumni community and make a difference, while taking part in a fierce but fun competition among fellow Minnesota Law alumni. We hope that you and our fellow “East” alumni teammates will join us in this campaign, show your support by making a gift today, and and help us win bragging rights as crowned champions. Every gift matters and makes a difference—both in having an impact at the Law School and in helping us earn points in the competition.
Your Team East Captains,
Ron Aucutt ‘75 (FL) and Dan Foix '98 (DC)
Dates: March 18, 2021– April 2, 2021.
Earning points: Teams will receive 1 point for every $10/donated and 1 point for each donor (e.g. someone who gives $30 will earn their team 4 points). Donations must be made through your team crowdfunding site.
How to Win: The Team with the most points by Friday April 2, 2021 will be this year’s champion. Winners will be announced in the April Digest and will have bragging rights for the next year.
MVPs: We'll be celebrating participating alumni by randomly selecting a daily MVP between March 21-27. MVPs will receive a special Minnesota Law swag bag to say thank you for competing in this year’s March Madness campaign.
