Leadership Gifts

Minnesota Law thanks these donors who lead the way with their support. Not only do they give generously with their resources, but they are loyal champions of the work being accomplished at the Law School. We recognize their service and the difference they are making.

Leadership Gift Highlights

Brett Brudvik and the Brudvik family

The family of William James Brudvik ’74 and his wife, Sandra Brudvik, recently made a gift to honor William’s wishes to recognize the University of Minnesota Law School. The gift was explicitly given for William’s lifelong appreciation that his seat in law school was held for two years so he could serve his country in Korea. He forever appreciated this University of Minnesota Law School policy that allowed him to practice law for a remarkable career.

W. Anders Folk ’01 and Angela Pennington

In recognition of their continued commitment to student success, Law School Class of 2001 alumnus and University of Minnesota Foundation Board of Trustees member W. Anders Folk and his spouse, Angela Pennington, have made a generous gift to the Law School Scholarship fund. This latest contribution underscores their long-standing commitment to supporting student needs and programs across the University.
