competition
Elizabeth G. Crowley '02
and Meghan L. McNamara '02 recently
competed in the Thomas Clark Appellate
Competition at Suffolk University Law School,
advancing to the semi-finals. The competition
involved the preparation of legal briefs,
followed by three weeks of oral arguments.
Competitors were critiqued on their overall
courtroom demeanor as well as their ability
to argue the substantive issues presented
in the competition. The finals, held on
March 4, 2004, brought three Massachusetts
Supreme Court Justices to preside over
the competition: Martha B. Sosman, Robert
J. Cordy and John M. Greaney '60. At
the reception following the final round,
a group of five Holy Cross graduates, all
attending Suffolk University Law School,
had the opportunity to speak with Judge
Greaney about their days at Holy Cross. Left
to Right: Matthew M. Valcourt '99,
Meghan L. McNamara '02, John M. Greaney '60,
Elizabeth G. Crowley '02, Kiley M.
Corcoran '01 and Gretel M. Gerhardt '01.
