We invite you to participate in the vision of John Cribbet, who for over five decades has asserted his belief in the law through an abiding commitment to the future of legal education.

Members in The Cribbet Society regularly share their experience, insight, and informed counsel with College administrators and the faculty to advance the vision and mission of the College of Law.  In turn, close involvement with the College of Law community offers personal recognition to those women and men who demonstrate a deep commitment to the College.

The John E. Cribbet Society was created in 1994 as a permanent means of sustaining excellence within the College of Law.  At the discretion of the dean, member contributions support such areas as student scholarships and awards, scholarly events, faculty research and travel grants, and service to the alumni.
