the Twenty-Second Annual Goods and Services <strong>Auction</strong>. The <strong>Auction</strong> is a tradition at <strong>H<strong>of</strong>stra</strong><br />
<strong>Law</strong> <strong>School</strong> unlike any other. Each year our auction raises funds to help support law students<br />
who provide quality legal services in the public sector during the summer months. The auction<br />
is always done with great style and humor, and we are hopeful that this year will be no<br />
exception. So relax, have a drink, loosen your wallets and your laughs, and enjoy the night we<br />
have planned for you.<br />
We will begin with a presentation honoring Pr<strong>of</strong>essor Eric Lane with the David A. Diamond<br />
Distinguished Public Service Award for his continued work with death penalty and habeas<br />
corpus cases.<br />
Then we will honor Ms. Catherine Samuels with the 5 th Annual Public Justice Foundation<br />
Outstanding Alumni Award for dedicating her career to serving the public interest.<br />
We would like to thank the entire <strong>H<strong>of</strong>stra</strong> <strong>Law</strong> <strong>School</strong> community and the local businesses that<br />
donated many <strong>of</strong> the items and services available for purchase this evening. Special thanks are<br />
extended to this year’s PJF members for their time and effort to make all <strong>of</strong> this possible. We<br />
further recognize the student body, student organizations, faculty, administration, and alumni as<br />
being instrumental in the success <strong>of</strong> this auction. In the past auctions, generous donations<br />
enabled the Public Justice Foundation to raise over $20,000 for student fellowships. We look<br />
forward to surpassing that amount this year through your involvement and generosity.<br />
We have a wide variety <strong>of</strong> wonderful items and services for you to bid on tonight. Please take a<br />
moment to look through the program carefully to consider all we have to <strong>of</strong>fer. If you have any<br />
