The Silliman University Law Alumni Association held its 23rd general assembly at the Luce Auditorium on Aug. 25, 2011 at 10 in the morning with Associate Justice of the Supreme Court Alberto A. Abad as guest speaker. The affair was also a special academic convocation co-sponsored by the SU College of Law and the Sen. Jovito R. Salonga Center for Law & Development.

Justice Abad spoke on “Justice and Freedom, Lessons from Daniel” in line with the theme Citadel of Hope, Bastion of Freedom.

The College of Law expressed its gratitude to Cesar Jalosjos, and the Guanzon family for their generous support in the form of development facilities.

Also present were Judges Noel Catacutan, Rosendo Bandal Jr., Cresencio Tan, Jr. and Arlene Dato.
