About 450 guests enjoyed a visual presentation that highlighted significant achievements and milestones of the faculty, as well as speeches by Monash
Law dean Professor Arie Freiberg, ABC Radio presenter Mr Jon Faine and media personality Mr Campbell McComas, both Law alumni.
Professor Freiberg said that over four decades, the faculty had introduced ground-breaking concepts such as the Springvale Monash Legal Service, the Castan Centre for Human Rights Law and the Centre for Privatisation and Public Accountability.
The event at Atlantic South Wharf in Southbank culminated with a light-hearted musical tribute to Monash Law, sung by faculty members Professor Graeme Hodge, Professor Jeff Goldsworthy, Dr Greg Taylor, Ms Elspeth McNeil and Professor Jeffrey Waincymer. |
