Capitol Reception 2015

Posted By Kevin R. Johnson, Sep 11, 2015

UC Davis School of Law held its 23rd annual Capitol Reception in Sacramento last night. 

This event introduces our first year students to King Hall alums who work in the state capital region.

I welcomed the crowd to the event at the Sheraton Grand, with first year students dressed to the nines mingling with alums from classes back to the 1970s as well as faculty (including Thomas Joo, Lisa Pruitt, and Rex Perschbacher).

Among the esteemed alums in attendance were with Justice Louis Mauro ’87 from the California Court of Appeals, Judge Stacey Boulware Eurie ‘95, and Steve Boutin ’72 (former President of the Alumni Board and Sacramento County Bar Association Lawyer of the Year).  We also had a special guest appearance by Darrell Steinberg ‘84, former President pro Tem of the California State Senate.

It was a night of enthusiasm, good cheer, and community.  It was just another reminder how lucky I am to be the dean of UC Davis School of Law.
