Commencement 2004
On May 16, the Law School conferred 358 Juris Doctor degrees, 37 Master of Laws degrees, 29 Master of Laws in the Judicial Process degrees, and two Doctor of Juridical Science degrees. Law School Dean John C. Jeffries, Jr. ’73, complimented the Class for being among the School’s most stellar. “I’ve been here for 30 years and I have not seen your equal,” he said. “You are the most committed, the most engaged, most active class in our long history,” he said. “You have shown more leadership in organizations, projects, and activities than any class before you. The University of Virginia School of Law has never been a more vibrant, a more stimulating, a more fun place to study than when it was inhabited by the Class of 2004.”
