Gary asked me to organize an Alumni Association to assist in the continuing growth of the MOOT CORP Program, and I enthusiastically agreed. As you can tell from the accompanying article, the MOOT CORP Competition has continued to grow in impact, quality, size and prestige and has become truly global. With this continuing growth, the demands on Gary and his assistant, Ann Whitt, continue to mount; they are asking for our assistance in terms of our time and energy, not our money. For a number of years, Gary has involved alumni in judging the competitions; now assistance is needed in other areas as well. The number of competitions at UT has significantly grown. Let me give you an overview.
