2025 Alumni and Faculty Scholarship Luncheon

Facade of the Higbee building

On Wednesday, April 9, alumni, faculty and guests attended the CWRU School of Law’s Alumni & Faculty Scholarship Luncheon, held at the Silver Grille in downtown Cleveland. From an era when shopping at a downtown department store was an event, for over fifty years, The Silver Grille located on the 10th floor of Higbee’s was known for the quality of its food, its attentive staff and its unique Art Deco interior. It is now a restored event space managed by The Ritz Carlton and the prefect space for the law school to honor awardees for the: Distinguished Recent Graduate Samantha Sridaran (LAW '18); Joan Gross ’76 Annual Fund Professor Robert Rapp (LAW '72); Distinguished Teacher Professor Matthew Rossman; and Centennial Medal recipient James Willis (LAW '52).
