Please join us on Tuesday, May 5 for an evening of conversation, community, and celebration at the Yale Club of Boston’s Annual Meeting. In addition to club business and elections, we’re thrilled to welcome Professor Akhil Reed Amar, ‘80/Law ‘84, who will deliver our keynote address.
Professor Amar is Sterling Professor of Law and Political Science at Yale University, where he teaches constitutional law at Yale College and Yale Law School. After graduating from Yale College summa cum laude in 1980 and from Yale Law School in 1984 and clerking for Judge (later Justice) Stephen Breyer, Prof. Amar joined the Yale Law faculty at the age of 26. He is Yale’s only living professor to have won the University’s unofficial triple crown — the Sterling Chair for scholarship, the DeVane Medal for teaching, and the Lamar Award for alumni service. He is America’s second most-cited legal scholar still under age 70 and a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He has written widely for popular publications, including The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, Time, and The Atlantic, and was an informal consultant to the popular TV show The West Wing.
Professor Amar’s visit is supported by The Redpath Fund, an endowment established in honor of Robert U. Redpath Jr. '28. Mr. Redpath was a great advocate for lifelong learning, believing that Commencement should be viewed as the beginning of one's ongoing education. With that spirit in mind, the Redpath Fund extends Yale's ability to bring educational programs to Yale graduates across the country.
The evening will begin with hors d’oeuvres, beverages and desserts, then turn to club business, including the election of directors and officers. Dues-paying members in good standing may vote on our slate for 2026-2027.
Parking is available at the 75 State Street Garage (entrance at 5 Broad Street) or the Post Office Square Garage (map). The building is a short walk from the State House, Government Center and Aquarium T stations.
Tickets are $45 per person for dues-paying members of the Yale Club of Boston and $55 for non-members.
