Today’s the Day!

Today is the last day of the fundraiser designed around Professor Huhn’s retirement walk and celebration.  If you have not made your donation to Students Embracing a Legacy’s online fundraiser, today is your last chance.

They have raised over $3,200 and would like to take that number as high as possible before the campaign closes.  Please visit www.startsomegood.com/studentlegacy2015 to make your donation and support Professor Huhn’s wish to raise money for the law school.

Reminder of Professor Huhn’s “Stepping Into Retirement” Walk This Weekend

Just a reminder that Professor Huhn will be doing his 25 mile walk through the Cuyahoga Valley National Park this weekend. Details regarding his walk can be found here.

If you can’t make it out to walk with him on Saturday or Sunday, you can meet him at the law school at 8:00 a.m. on Monday when he arrives to begin his last week of teaching at the University of Akron School of Law. You can also join him in making a donation to the 2015 class gift. Professor Huhn has already donated $525 here.

Any donations made via this site by Class of 2015 students will be submitted to the law school for inclusion in the graduation packet.
