Professionalism personified

Detroit Mercy Law recently hosted its annual Professionalism in Action event in conjunction with the State Bar of Michigan. Professionalism in Action emphasizes Detroit Mercy Law’s commitment to incorporate ethics across the curriculum. Prominent judges and lawyers were on hand to discuss the importance of civility and work through a series of ethical and professionalism hypotheticals with all first-year law students in small groups. A networking reception followed the program. Among those involved in the event were (front row, left to right) retired Wayne County Circuit Judge Wendy Baxter, state Administrative Law Judge Laura Gibson, U.S. District Magistrate Judge Stephanie Dawkins Davis, Dean Phyllis Crocker, Katrina Hardy, Jennifer Dukarski, U.S. District Magistrate Judge Mona Majzoub, state Court of Appeals Chief Judge Michael Talbot and Avis Choulagh; along with (back row, from left) Joe Vernon, state Court of Appeals Judge Christopher Murray, Mark Wisniewski, Ed Lennon, Eric Straus, state Supreme Court Justice Brian Zahra, Jordan Paterra and Dan Dalton.
