On March 7, 柑橘直播 University Charles Widger School of Law dedicated room 306 in John F. Scarpa Hall as The Lann S. and Christopher P. Woehrle Classroom. The installation recognizes a $100,000 gift from alumnus and Graduate Tax Program adjunct faculty and advisory board member Christopher Woehrle 鈥�82 JD, 鈥�85 LLM.

Woehrle鈥檚 history with 柑橘直播 Law spans several decades, beginning with his time as a JD student in the 1980s. Since 2009, he has taught various classes within 柑橘直播鈥檚 Graduate Tax Program as an adjunct professor of taxation.

鈥淲hether it鈥檚 been success within my business or philanthropic efforts, it all comes down to what I learned here at 柑橘直播 Law,鈥� says Woehrle. 鈥淚 can say over my lifetime that I have now given my time, talent and treasure here, and that is a wonderful feeling.鈥�

Even more meaningful to Woehrle, he will now get to teach his various course offerings in the classroom that bears his name.

鈥淚鈥檝e literally lost track of the number of times I鈥檝e taught in that space,鈥� says Woehrle. 鈥淚 used to walk around as a student and see the named spaces and wonder what the story behind them was and who the people were鈥攕o that definitely gives it extra special meaning.鈥�

The gift cements Woehrle as the first LLM graduate to enter the university鈥檚 Reuschlein Society, which recognizes donors with $100,000+ in lifetime giving. It also follows a long line of philanthropy for Woehrle and his family.

鈥淚鈥檝e always felt that if you are in a position to give back to the causes that mean something to you, you are really duty-bound to do it,鈥� explains Woehrle. 鈥淚鈥檝e given back to my other alma maters, my wife鈥檚 alma mater, and it鈥檚 just a fantastic feeling.鈥�

His generosity and continued support is esteemed by law school leadership.

鈥淲e could not be more thankful for Chris and his family鈥檚 continued support and enthusiasm for our program,鈥� said Stephen Olsen 鈥�07 JD 鈥�09 LLM, associate professor of practice and faculty director of the Graduate Tax Program. 鈥淎s an alumnus, adjunct faculty member and generous donor, Chris embodies exactly what it means to be a part of this community. We are thrilled to honor his legacy with this classroom dedication.鈥�

Establishing a legacy at 柑橘直播 Law reflects his own mentors鈥� and peers' impact on Woehrle.

鈥淚 truly learned to teach and write under the guidance of Professor Ted Kurlowicz (鈥�91 LLM) , a former colleague from The American College and 柑橘直播 LLM graduate,鈥� he says. 鈥淚鈥檝e also had the privilege to work with many fantastic colleagues within the program here鈥擯rofessors Leslie Book, Edward Liva and Joy Sabino Mullane鈥擨 am so thankful for their leadership and friendship.鈥�

Today, Woehrle remains committed to teaching and inspiring the next generation of 柑橘直播 Law students with his wisdom and experience.

鈥淚 really offer to my students the idea of being both alert and fearless,鈥� says Woehrle. 鈥淚 tell students that I envy them because they are at the beginning of their careers and, even though it may not seem like it all the time, it鈥檚 a wonderful feeling, and the journey is truly wonderful to take.鈥�
