DC/MD/VA

Welcome to the DC/MD/VA Chapter, consisting of more than 425 alumni residing and working throughout Washington, DC, Maryland and Virginia, and includes alumni working in both the private and public sectors. We invite alumni, faculty, students and friends to attend chapter events and programs, which are posted throughout the year on the Law School's Events Calendar. We also encourage you to contact any of the leadership council members listed below if you have any questions about practicing in the DC/MD/VA area, or if you are interested in becoming more involved with the Chapter.

Pictured Above: On March 3, the Chapter welcomed John Gotanda as the sixth dean of the Law School at a reception held at the Metropolitan Club in Washington, DC. Pictured above are Robert Murphy '83, our host at the Club, Stacey Bach '00, president of the Chapter, and Dean Gotanda.
