Celebrating leaders committed to justice and public service

The University of Baltimore School of Law prepares lawyers not only to practice law but to lead. That mission was reflected in Maryland's June primary elections, in which 16 UBalt Law alumni found success. Nine alumni secured nominations for circuit court judgeships, while seven advanced in races for state and local government offices—continuing the law school's proud tradition of graduates who leverage their legal education to serve their communities and strengthen the rule of law.
 
We are thrilled to celebrate our alumni who will give back to their communities.
