The Quinney Society
The Quinney Society is a newly established giving society at the S.J. Quinney College of Law, designed to celebrate our most generous and dedicated donors. Because we know that progress is driven by people, the Quinney Society was created to recognize those who believe in the power of education, the promise of justice, and the importance of giving back.
Why The Quinney Society Matters
Annual gifts in any amount have always made a difference to our Utah Law community. When donors commit to supporting our mission year after year, that impact becomes transformational. The Quinney Society is our way of honoring those who are most committed to shaping legal education. By joining the Quinney Society, you are not just making a donation, you are championing student success, fueling innovative programs, and empowering the next generation of legal changemakers.
How to Join The Quinney Society
Membership in the Quinney Society is open to anyone who contributes a cumulative total of $2,500 annually to the College of Law. Gifts designated to any College of Law fund count, and those whose annual contributions towards the S.J. Quinney College of Law total $2,500 or more between each fiscal year (July 1-June 30) will be recognized as a member of the Quinney Society the following fiscal year.
If you give jointly with a spouse or partner, your combined household giving towards the S.J. Quinney College of Law counts toward membership.
