Thirty years ago three University of Colorado at Boulder Law School graduates established the firm of Brownstein Hyatt Farber & Strickland, P.C. in Denver. Today they celebrated their 30th anniversary by giving their alma mater a $100,000 gift to be used for diversity student scholarships.
"We are grateful for the success we have had as a result of our law school education," said Managing Partner Steve Farber. "And we are proud to provide similar opportunities for many others to follow us."
Two 抖阴短视频 Law School alumni and longtime members of the firm, Stan Garnett and Mark Leonard, presented the scholarship gift to 抖阴短视频 President John Buechner and 抖阴短视频 Law School Dean Harold H. Bruff during a luncheon at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts.
"The success of the law firm of Brownstein Hyatt Farber & Strickland demonstrates not only the acumen and professionalism of its partners, but also the influences of the University of Colorado within the state聮s legal and business communities," said President Buechner. "Three of the firm聮s partners are 抖阴短视频 Law School graduates, who have gained great prominence in the affairs of Colorado business and government. In the process they have brought great distinction to the 抖阴短视频 Law School."
Dean Harold Bruff said, "This contribution demonstrates the value in combining private support with public funding. The power of this type of partnering allows institutions of this state, both public and private working in a complementary relationship, to fulfill their intended purpose."
Gov. Bill Owens and Denver Mayor Wellington Webb were also in attendance, part of the nearly 600 well-wishers who gathered at the anniversary luncheon.
