Reunion 2004 Class Gift Committee:

Opportunities for Involvement

As he celebrates the 10th anniversary of his graduation, Charles “Chuck” Rich (L’94) reflects on the impact the Law Center has had on his career. He recalls his decision to attend Georgetown as a desire to add a practical skill base to his previous training in public policy analysis at Harvard. “I wanted a well-rounded legal education that would prepare me to work in international business and development, as well as in government. I knew that the Law Center’s array of courses in corporate law, finance and tax law, among others, would serve me well.”
       And serve him well it has. Following a successful career with Price Waterhouse Coopers in Washington, DC and Moscow, Chuck now works at the Federal Reserve Board, where he focuses on banking supervision and regulation. He attributes much of his professional success to his legal education.
     Chuck’s pride in Georgetown is most evident in his continuing involvement as an alumnus. Chuck is a member of the Class of 1994 Gift Committee, a volunteer committee devoted to raising funds for the Law Center in celebration of reunion. “I feel good when I write a check to Georgetown, and I don’t always feel that way when making charitable donations. I think that gifts to the Law Annual Fund ensure that the program and facilities afforded students will be memorable, and hopefully affordable!”
      Georgetown’s vision for the future is right on the mark, Chuck believes. “There are so many good law schools in the United States, but I think it is fair to say that Georgetown will continue to be recognized for the depth of its programs, for its faculty, and, consequently, for the students it attracts.”
