Campaign Update

campaign.law.columbia.edu

MESSAGE FROM THE CAMPAIGN CO-CHAIRS Thank you for joining us during this crucial time for the Law School— and the world. Our resolve, especially during this pandemic, enables us to address the challenges, persevere, emerge even stronger, and create lasting benefits for future students.

Your support for the ambitious, five-year Campaign for Columbia Law allows the School to make a difference, when and where it matters most. Your generosity has propelled us more than two-thirds of the way toward our $300 million goal.

The campaign’s impact is felt throughout the Law School. We are providing more students with more scholarship aid than ever before, offering innovative new courses, and hiring distinguished, accomplished faculty. Students receive even more hands-on, real-world legal experiences through our expanded experiential education programs. Importantly, Columbia Law students become leaders—across disciplines, sectors, industries, and borders—who are prepared to act wisely during the pivotal moments that affect generations to come.

It takes vision and resources for a law school to prepare students for such a dynamic marketplace—and world. Our gifts, of all sizes and types, make this possible.

The campaign gives all of us the chance to reflect on how much the Law School has helped define the course of history. For 160 years, the Columbia Law School community has influenced key advances in civil and human rights, the regulation of our economy, governance and the rule of law, and conflict and the search for peace. Our leadership in these and other important areas of the law continues today.

Columbia Law School helped prepare all of us for successful and purposeful careers and lives. By coming together, through this campaign, we can help secure this tradition of excellence and innovation for generations to come. Thank you again for your ongoing support.

Sincerely,

Alison S. Ressler ’83 Brad Smith ’84 Kathy Surace-Smith ’84

5 years. $300 million. Boundless opportunity.

$200 million

of $300 million goal The Campaign for Columbia Law is our ambitious effort to raise

$300 million

over five years.

CAMPAIGN HIGHLIGHTS

More than 11,600 alumni and friends

have already made gifts to the campaign.

Created 12 new endowed professorships,

which provide critical, sustainable support for faculty research, recruitment, and retention.

Established 78 new scholarships,

which are core to our commitment to ensure that Columbia Law School is accessible to all students who are qualified, regardless of financial means.

The Eric H. Holder Scholarship Fund,

established to help make the legal profession more reflective of society, surpassed the $500,000 mark toward a $1 million goal to provide tuition support to students of color.

Expanded access to experiential learning opportunities—

including creating new law clinics and externship programs— that provide hands-on training in a real-world setting.

Continued to grow the Annual Fund,

enabling the Dean to drive innovation and seize opportunities as they arise.

BELOVED FACULTY MEMBER REMEMBERED BY ENDOWED PROFESSORSHIP More than 500 friends, family members, and former colleagues of the late Harvey J. Goldschmid ’65 joined forces to create a lasting tribute to the beloved Columbia Law faculty member, who worked at the School for nearly half a century. Together they established the Harvey J. Goldschmid Professorship in the Faculty of Law. In February 2020, Kathryn Judge was appointed the inaugural recipient.

It is with great appreciation that the Law School acknowledges the generosity of our donors, listed here, who have made commitments of $100,000 or more to The Campaign for Columbia Law as of June 30, 2020.
