About 600 law school graduates, students, faculty and guests attended the afternoon ceremony held on the school's lawn north of the new building. A reception was held in the building's atrium following the ceremony.  WOMEN'S SOCCER TEAM MEMBERS WALK TO 'LIGHT THE NIGHT' In honor of women's soccer coach Jean Delaski's brother, who almost lost a battle with leukemia, members of the women's soccer team participated in the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's "Light the Night" walk last week. Walkers carried illuminated balloons to celebrate and commemorate lives touched by cancer. The team raised more than $600 for the cause. "The team participating in the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's 'Light the Night' walk was very special to me," said Delaski. "My older brother was diagnosed with leukemia twice in the last five years and underwent a bone marrow transplant last March. The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society supported my family in many ways during that trying time. So it was nice to be able to give something back." NEW SEASON BRINGS NEW OPPORTUNITIES The opening of a new season means new opportunities for the IUPUI women's soccer team. Fourth-year coach Jean Delaski is hoping to improve on last season's 8-11-1 record.
