Honorable Julian Bond Georgia State Legislature Atlanta, Georgia

Dear Mr. Bond:

On behalf of Gray's Inn of the University of Notre Dame Law School, I cordially invite you to address our members during the 1967-68 academic year.

Gray's Inn, a society of law students and law professors, is the speaker's form and discussion club of the Notre Dame Law School. Our organization meets periodically to discuss leading contemporary topics with the meetings usually consisting of an address by our guest speaker, followed by an informal discussion period.

I am aware, of course, of your controversial career which has been highlighted by your successful court fight with the Geogia Legislature. And in addition to this there has been your active involvement in the civil rights movement. Thus I am sure that your appearance would make an invaluable contribution to the Notre Dame Law School.

While the Law School has not yet officially announced its academic calendar for next year, it is known that the fall semester will run from approximately August 20 to December 20, and the spring semester from January 20 to May 20. Since the convenience of our guest speakers is our primary aim we will schedule our meeting on whatever date you find most convenient.

If it will be convenient for you to meet with us during one of these periods, please contact me at the above New York address. Gray's Inn will be honored by your presence.

Thank you for you cooperation.

Sincerely [signed] Peter T. King Peter T. King, President
