Concordia University School of Law

Posted by admin

Boise’s Concordia University School of Law is ready to receive its first class in the Fall of 2012. The ribbon cutting at the University and the George R. White Law Library took place yesterday. The building, which began construction in June 2010, is now complete. In January 2011, a $1 million gift was received by the University from local philanthropist and businessman George R. White and his wife, Geri. The Library will contain over 20,000 volumes in roughly 20,000 square feet.

The school is affiliated with Concordia’s Portland university, part of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod.

Dean Cathy Silak expects 75 to 95 students to start next Fall; applications are accepted online starting November 1st. Initially there will be 6 faculty members and several adjunct faculty.

The Latest Tip From Merilee Marsh

SUTIN, THAYER & BROWN: UNCONVENTIONAL HIGHLIGHTS

Sutin, Thayer & Browne—with locations in Santa Fe and Albuquerque, New Mexico—has 48 attorneys, 22 practice areas, and a few unconventional aspects to the website. The attorneys’ attitude leads the home page: “I believe if opportunity doesn’t knock, build a door.” Changing artwork on the site gives a different flavor from traditional books or a judiciously placed pen. A sensitive “In Memoriam” section offers photos and stories of five attorneys.

Established in 1946, the firm promotes the diversity of its attorneys, mentioning some of the occupations/interests the lawyers claim: musician, rancher, state attorney general, foster parent, auto mechanic, mountain climber, farmer, poet, baseball player, beauty queen, pilot….

How do you highlight the uniqueness of the attorneys within your firm?
