Remembering Tim Russert, Class of 1976

Sue Altmeyer, Electronic Services Librarian, sue.altmeyer@law.csuohio.edu | June 13, 2008 - 15:44

The Cleveland Marshall College of Law Community is saddened by the passing of our alumnus, Tim Russert (Class of 1976). Mr. Russert served on the National Advisory Council for the school. We were honored to have Mr. Russert as a commencement speaker last year, where he urged the graduates to be conscientious lawyers and “foot soldiers of the law.” See Seelye, Katharine Q., NBC's Tim Russert Dies, The Caucus (NY Times Political Blog); NBC's Tim Russert Dead at 58, MSNBC.

Thanks to Jessica Matthewson for the articles.

I knew him when he was in law school - even then so full of joy about the study of law and American politics, so proud and hopeful about the opportunities to effect change afforded him by his education and working class ethos. How sad for all of us to lose that ever hopeful and engaged spirit.
