Widener Law recently held commencement exercises for its 39th graduating class on its campus in Wilmington, Del. The ceremony, held Saturday, May 18, on the campus lawn featured an address by Pennsylvania Supreme Court Justice Max Baer.
Baer told the 320 graduates "know what you know, know what you don't know and ask for help, and tell the truth."
"You are the best and the brightest. You are the most motivated and persistent. You are law school graduates and that is a very, very special status. Welcome to the club. Nobody can ever take it away from you," he said.
