Mack, Honorable Monte E. Endowed Trial Advocacy Fund
The Honorable Monte E. Mack Endowed Trial Advocacy Fund was established at The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ in April 2019 by Gwendolyn R. Mack in memory of her husband, The Honorable Monte E. Mack.
Judge Mack attended The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ, where he was a member of Phi Delta Theta fraternity and the track team. He graduated from Kent State University with a bachelor of arts degree, and earned his law degree from The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ School of Law in 1957. He served in the U.S. Army during the Korean Conflict and later worked as a corporate attorney before going into private practice and ultimately becoming an ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Municipal Court judge. He served on the bench from 1983 until his retirement in 1997.
Mrs. Mack chose to establish The Honorable Monte E. Mack Endowed Trial Advocacy Fund, which will support ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Law’s trial advocacy programming, because Judge Mack “loved good trial lawyers.” As a judge, he is remembered for his strict and decisive courtroom demeanor. As a man, he was known for being a warm and kind mentor, as well as a gentleman and a gentle man with a wry sense of humor and a subtle competitive spirit.
The Honorable Monte E. Mack Endowed Trial Advocacy Fund is a wonderful way to continue Judge Mack’s legacy by training the next generation of trial attorneys.
The Honorable Monte E. Mack Endowed Trial Advocacy Fund shall be used to support the operation, travel, marketing and/or growth of ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Law’s trial advocacy programming. The dean of the School of Law or his/her designee will direct the use of funds.
