Academy of Law Alumni Fellows
The Academy of Law Alumni Fellows was established in 1985 to recognize alumni whose careers are defined by exceptional personal achievement and dedication to the highest standards of the profession.

Ochoa was one of 60 deans to sign a letter last September pushing back against the proposed change to …
