The 2015 Wayne Law Golf Outing on Monday, June 8, raised more than $28,000, nearly doubling the $15,000 raised by last year’s outing, for Wayne State University Law School scholarships.
The money goes toward an endowment to provide scholarships to assist second- and third-year students at the law school.

Platinum-level sponsors were Anthony and Tiffany Dietz, Lear Corp. and Lumen Legal. Gold-level sponsors were Tim Guerriero and Debra Marcon, as well as Howard & Howard Attorneys PLLC.
At the reception, Wayne Law Dean Jocelyn Benson presented a scholarship of $1,000 to rising second-year student Gabe Appel.
