Partners in Leadership Final Countdown!
|
|
Unlike with the NBA Finals, the other competition we'd been following, Partners in Leadership, still has time to pull off a win.
But with only five days to go, we are deep into the fourth quarter. It's go time, Boalties.
We're aiming for 80% overall participation and we need to pick up the pace as we head into the home stretch. Follow the competitors and campaign results so far.
There's still time to help your organization reach its goal and support Berkeley Law's next generation of leaders in the legal profession. Make your gift by June 30th!
