Convocation 2007 was a wonderful day ... nature cooperated, everything went smoothly, The Honourable Bill Graham was inspiring, our Valedictorian Chris Graham spoke beautifully, and Professor Michael Code saw our graduates off to start their careers with a rousing "hail and farewell" speech. Most important, our students and their families and friends simply glowed with pleasure.  Many of our graduates said to me how much they loved the law-only ceremony.  It means so much to us to have our own ceremony, to be able to address the graduates and for the graduates to have so many family members and friends share such an important moment.
