Windsor Law alum Allan Stitt has pledged matching funds up to a total of $25,000 towards the effort.

Stitt graduated from UWindsor in 1988 and is now an internationally recognized arbitrator as well as the president and CEO of ADR Chambers and the Stitt Feld Handy Group in North York.

For someone who also attended law schools at the University of Detroit Mercy and Harvard, Stitt credits his time at the University of Windsor as transformational.

“Windsor law school put me in a position to do things I wouldn’t otherwise be able to do,” Stitt said Monday. “It gave me the confidence and the skills to do the other things (at Harvard and UDM).”

Stitt has maintained a close connection to Windsor law through the years and does training courses and other ventures with the school.
