It's to dine for

Forty-five first-year law students practiced the art of fine dining as part of a professional development program designed to expand and strengthen their social skills. WUSTL law alumna Joan Newman (center) conducted the session, held earlier this month at the Whittemore House on the Danforth Campus. A former partner at the St. Louis law firm Thompson Coburn LLP, Newman has made it her business to help prepare aspiring attorneys for success in the legal profession. Above, Newman looks in on law students Ross Kordas and Kathleen Tucker.
