Eastern Michigan University appoints Lauren London as general counsel
Lauren London, who has served as Eastern Michigan University’s associate general counsel for more than four years, has been appointed general counsel at the University.
London replaces Gloria Hage, who left EMU to take a position with the University of Michigan. London will serve as the University’s primary legal counsel and advisor.
London was appointed after a national search to fill the position.
London, who has practiced law in Michigan for more than 16 years, started at Eastern in November of 2013. Before her promotion to the general counsel position, she served as EMU’s sole associate general counsel for more than four years, handling a wide range of legal issues on behalf of the University.
Prior to that, she was assistant general counsel for Robert Bosch LLC in Farmington Hills, focusing on commercial law, contract negotiation, product liability, antitrust and civil litigation. Before Bosch, London spent several years as a litigator and appellate specialist with the Dykema Gossett law firm.
She graduated from Brown University in 1998 with an Sc.B., with honors in Psychology. She earned her law degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2002, and later completed a judicial clerkship with the Honorable Raymond M. Kethledge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit.
In her free time, London serves as executive director of The Penny Seats Theatre Company, an Ann Arbor-based theater troupe. She lives in Ann Arbor with her husband and two children.
Two attorneys moderate ‘Choices and Consequences’ program
Attorney Lynda McGhee with Ark Nonviolence Program and Attorney Robyn L. McCoy, a partner with the law firm of McCoy & Associates, PLLC will facilitate a Choices and Consequences Program on May 1 at 9 a.m. at the Frank Murphy Hall of Justice. Students from Martin Luther King High School will visit the court rooms of the criminal court judges and have the opportunity to observe some of the proceedings and ask questions of the jurists. In the afternoon, students will have the opportunity to take a class on Criminal Court Basics 101 with 36th District Court Judge Lydia Nance-Adams, Wayne County Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Opolla Brown and Wayne County Criminal Defense Bar Association President Luther Glenn. The discussion will be moderated by McGhee and McCoy.
The purpose of the program is to “expose students to careers within the court system and the consequences for negative behavior,” according to McGhee, who has been facilitating the court room visits for a number of years.
