Over the years, a number of distinguished judges and other legal scholars have delivered commencement speeches at Pace Law School graduations. I previously posted a link to Judge Sonia Sotomayor’s commencement speech to the graduates of the class of 2003.

Over the past few months, the Library has been working to add all content from all three Pace law reviews to the Pace Digital Commons. During the course of this project, we discovered reprints of the transcripts of two other speeches. First, the Honorable Warren Burger’s address to the class of 1983. Justice Burger served as Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court from 1969 to 1986.

Second, Governor Mario M. Cuomo’s address to the class of 1989. Governor Cuomo served as governor of New York from 1983 to 1994.
