Last Friday the campus hosted the Annual Peck Awards Dinner. This year’s senior Peck Award winner is the noted teacher and author, Stephen Carter. You can read more about the evening here.
It was a great evening. Carter was superb, in every respect, with a message tailored to the Wabash campus…for sure. †Our award winners were also great young men. As many of the practicing attorneys stated, they were glad they aren’t competing with these young men for law school admission.
I came away equally impressed by the opportunities our young men had to sit down and engage several different attorneys about the practice of the law. They could ask the 23 questions that they won’t ask of anyone else at the dinner. The students had a chance to sample, if you will, several aspects of the law through the eyes of people practicing it every single day. In the photo, Brad Johnson ’71, an attorney from the Indianapolis area, chats with Joshua Lopez ’10. Priceless.
