Res Gestae – S.J. Quinney College of Law

Fall 2023 Issue

Welcome to the newest issue of Res Gestae, Utah Law's alumni magazine!

In this issue we meet the four Serassio sisters—Melanie, Helen, Carey, and Serena—who all attended Utah Law within a nine-year span, and remember Carey, who died of cancer in November 2022.

We also honor alumna Beatrice Kroesche, of whom the Beatrice F. Kroesche Memorial Scholarship was named, and learn more about Paulina Barboza, who received the first fund scholarship at Utah Law. Finally, alum Vince Mancini discusses his path to becoming an honors attorney at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Check out Class Notes to read about alumni's professional and personal accomplishments — and submit your own! We publish them each year in our fall issue.

Remembering Carey Serassio Seager: Sisters recall years at Utah Law together

Four sisters never planned to attend the same law school. But as luck would have it, it happened anyway. The Serassio sisters include Melanie (’98), Helen (’00), Carey (’02) and Serena (’07), each with a unique story as to how they ended up at Utah Law.

Helping consumers make cents of finance law: Meet honors attorney Vince Mancini

Vince Mancini’s goal when he started at Utah Law was finding a legal job in the public interest sector—and when he graduated in 2023, his years of focus within this specialty paid off. In August, Mancini was hired as an honors attorney with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, a federal agency that ensures fairness within consumer financial markets.

Honoring a single mother’s sacrifice: Kroesche family expands scholarship program to Utah Law

Navigating law school as a single parent has been challenging, but an understanding S.J. Quinney staff and faculty—and help from the Beatrice F. Kroesche Memorial Scholarship—have made the journey easier for 2L Paulina Barboza.
