I am pleased to announce that John Lloyd (J.D. ’92) has been appointed Academic Advancement Director for the Law School effective June 30, 2014. A brief bio is included below.

As part of the Academic Advancement team, the Academic Advancement Directors work across the University to surface, devise, and implement strategic academic fundraising initiatives to bolster the University’s research enterprise.

As the Academic Advancement Director for the Law School, John will serve as a liaison between the Law School and the development team. He will also serve as a member of the dean’s senior leadership team.  The scope of John’s responsibilities includes working with the dean to understand the priorities and needs for Law School funding and subsequently educating development employees on such items.  These priorities will direct the capital, endowed, and special fundraising activities for the school.
