International Law LL.M. - Class of 2020

Congratulations Graduates from Velaine, Tracy, and Deb!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!

It’s Graduation Week, and we are celebrating our unparalleled 2020 graduates! On Saturday, May 16, please visit Stetson Law's homepage (stetson.edu/law) for the link to our special Graduation Celebration website. In the meantime, you can get in the spirit with custom Facebook profile frames or head over to Instagram to download some gorgeous wallpapers for your phone!

We are very excited to welcome Stetson’s new Director of International Programs, Ms. Jessica Dworkin. Please stop by and say hello when you return!

Ms. Dworkin joined us from Emory Law School in Atlanta, GA.
While at Emory, she received the International Outreach Award, established in 2012 to recognize professional staff who have made significant contributions to Emory’s internationalization through the programs, schools and units in which they serve. She led Emory Law's overall international strategy and efforts to expand existing graduate programs.
She focused on increasing the geographic diversity and academic strength of Emory Law's LLM program (master of laws for foreign-trained attorneys) through her outreach efforts with institutions in Asia, South America, the Middle East and Europe. Under her leadership, Emory's LLM enrollment increased by 350 percent. She helped Emory Law establish several key strategic partnerships, resulting in new international agreements for both faculty collaborations and student exchanges. Among the most notable are new partnerships with Fulbright and with the Public-Private Partnership for Justice Reform in Afghanistan.
“As a result of her work, both Emory University and Emory Law have seen their reputations enhanced in professional networks throughout the world,” says Robert Schapiro, Asa Griggs Candler Professor of Law. Dworkin holds a BA with honors in international studies and Spanish from Ohio State University and a JD and LLM in international
and comparative law from Duke University School of Law.

Please join us in welcoming Ms. Dworkin to Stetson's campus and community!

All are welcome and it will be a meaningful event.
