The honor of hooding the graduates will go to Marianne Auld, associate professor of law, and Waco attorney Robert Watson, a 1976 Baylor law graduate, who teaches real estate finance at the law school as an adjunct professor.
The invocation will be given by David M. Guinn, who serves as the Louise L. Morrison Professor of Constitutional Law and Master Teacher.
After the ceremony, a reception for the graduates and their guests will be hosted by the Baylor Law Alumni Association in the Barfield Drawing Room of the Bill Daniel Student Center.
