The University of Connecticut Law School Alumni Association honored James D. Bartolini of RisCassi and Davis, P.C., with its Distinguished Graduate Award in a well-attended presentation ceremony last night. This prestigious award reads as follows:

"The University of Connecticut Law School Alumni Association, Inc., is proud to present the Distinguished Graduate Award to James D. Bartolini of the Class of 1975 in appreciation of his outstanding service to the profession and in grateful recognition of his steadfast support of the University of Connecticut School of Law."

There was some symmetry to the presentation of the award to Jim Bartolini. Bill Davis presented the award to Jim Bartolini on behalf of the alumni assocation, just as Jim had presented the very same award to Bill Davis, 20 years before.

In a remarkable coincidence, both Jim Bartolini and Bill Davis were honored with this award 29 years after their respective graduations from the University of Connecticut School of Law.
