S.LA. Alumni Districts
Established in Florida
by Paul M. May '80, President
of the Stetson Lawyers Association
Paul M. May '80, PRESIDENT
Stetson University College of Law
currently has 3800 graduates. Approximately eight-five percent of our alumni
reside in Florida. To better serve the
purposes of the Stetson Lawyers Association (S.LA) and effectively reach our
alumni within the State of Florida, the
S.L.A. officers developed a plan to divide
the state into sixteen districts.
The districts are composed of one or
more counties centered around a city
with a large alumni population. Each
district will be represented by their own
District Committee, which will consist of
the Chairperson, Vice-Chairperson and
four to seven members from a broad
range of graduating class years. The
District Chairperson will be guided by
the S.LA officers and assisted in their
VOL. 27 NO. 2
duties by Ken Hanson, the Director of
Development and Sabrina Shirley, the
Director of Alumni Relations.
The main purpose of the District
Committees is to generate support and
interest in the law school among Stetson
alumni throughout Florida. The regional
alumni receptions have been a great
success. I would like to continue the
trend by holding at least one alumni
event in each district every year.
We are currently in the process of
organizing the districts. So far, Nancy
Phillips Maxwell 79 of West Palm Beach
has agreed to chair District #3; Joe
Stewart '84 of Naples will be the District
#4 Chairperson; Dan Webster '83 of
Daytona Beach will be the Chairperson
for District #12; and Bob Riegel '81 of
Jacksonville will be chairing District #13.
If you are interested in chairing or
helping establish the committee in your
district please contact me in Ft
Lauderdale at (305) 763-6006 or Sabrina
Shirley in St Petersburg at (813) 343-
1319.
