Will Kohn '76 Created Assistance Programs in Illinois, Ohio
Days before his sudden and unexpected passing, Will Kohn ’76 was interviewed for this story. His sincere concern for the law school, our students, and the role of lawyers in society, coupled with his energy and creativity in translating that concern to real world applications was very special and, frankly, inspiring. All of us at the College were so fond of Will and so appreciative of his support, we decided that publishing this feature was one of the ways we could pay tribute to our special friend.
- Alan C. Michaels, Dean
