David F. Levi to Serve as Director of Bolch Judicial Institute
A gift of $10 million from Carl Bolch Jr. and Susan Bass Bolch will endow The Carl and Susan Bolch Judicial Institute, a new institute at Duke Law School. The Bolch Judicial Institute will be dedicated to bettering the human condition through studying and promoting the rule of law.
“I have had success in business that I couldn’t have dreamed I’d have, largely because of a system built on the rule of law and a society that respects the rule of law,” said Carl Bolch Jr, a Duke Law School alumnus. “The Bolch Judicial Institute will work to protect, preserve, and strengthen these ideals here in the United States and around the world. The rule of law is the foundation for the stability of society, human rights, a growing economy, and flourishing culture and artistic life. An independent judiciary and a society’s belief in the fairness of its justice system are critical to preserving and protecting the rule of law.”
Duke Law School Dean and ALI President David F. Levi will serve as inaugural director of the Bolch Judicial Institute after stepping down as dean on June 30.
