As part of our year-long 120th Anniversary celebration, we unveiled our first-ever C|M|Law Trivia Game at our First Annual C|M|Law Legacy Celebration a few weeks ago.
Congratulations to our two winners –Russell O'Rourke '84 and C|M|Law Professor Emeritus Frederick White. Russell won the Legacy Event Trivia Game and Professor White won the Monday Morning Message Trivia Game. (Same questions and answers). Both Russell and Fred, and a guest of their choice, will have lunch with me and a current professor of their choice sometime this year (sorry, it was the best we could do on short notice…) The questions and answers are below.
