Congratulations to our 2015 Prize winners

On 23 April 2015, we held our annual Prize Giving Ceremony to celebrate the outstanding achievements of our students.

Over 200 attendees, including prize winners and their families as well as faculty staff, gathered in the Law School Auditorium with Professor Greg Tolhurst encharged with announcing the recipients.

The Dean, Professor Joellen Riley, acknowledged the efforts of our students and expressed the Law School's gratitude for the invaluable support of the community and the profession, and warmly thanked all prize and scholarship donors for their continuing support.
