Meet the Dean

Join fellow alumni and friends as we introduce Northwestern Law’s new Dean and Harold Washington Professor, Daniel B. Rodriguez, to the alumni community at receptions scheduled in select cities throughout the U.S. and around the world.

These events are excellent opportunities to reconnect with local Northwestern Law alumni and to meet the school's new dean. Register today.

Project to Update the Alumni Printed Directory

Northwestern Law is working with its partner, Publishing Concepts, Inc. (PCI) in an effort to update alumni contact information. This is a project that most law schools undertake approximately every five years. The Law School’s last comprehensive directory was published in 1999.

Over the next few weeks and months, all graduates will receive a postcard and/or email from PCI requesting that alumni contact the PCI call center. During the call, alumni will be asked to update their contact (mailing address, e-mail, telephone, etc.) and professional information (job title, employer, and practice areas).

Many thanks in advance for your participation in this project. By updating your information, the Law School will be able to send you invitations to programs and events of particular interest to you. Most importantly, up-to-date alumni information provides you and your fellow alumni with the opportunity to connect and re-connect with one another.

Please visit our Directory FAQ or call the Office of Alumni Relations if you have any questions or concerns at (312) 503-8494.
