(J.D. ’67, H.D. ’13)
Giving back to the Kansas City community is key to 威尼斯人娱乐城 Trustee 吉姆Polsinelli’s philosophy. Polsinelli以身作则。 作为威尼斯人娱乐城社区的活跃成员，Polsinelli是威尼斯人娱乐城董事会的前任主席，法律基金会董事会的成员和前任主席，以及威尼斯人娱乐城基金会的前任董事会成员。 他曾担任2018年威尼斯人娱乐城校友奖（威尼斯人娱乐城 校友 Awards）的联合主席，一直是杰斐逊城这所大学不知疲倦的倡导者，并在1972年与他人共同创办的Polsinelli律师事务所慷慨地为学生举办活动。
“It is hard to imagine how anyone who has built the second largest law firm in Kansas City could find the time and tremendous energy he has displayed in several capacities supporting 威尼斯人娱乐城,” said Leo Morton, chancellor emeritus at 威尼斯人娱乐城.
即使在2018年退休之前，他也是一名热心的社区志愿者，他通过向Polsinelli的同事灌输捐赠计划来鼓励社区参与，这反映了他对分享成功的承诺。 Polsinelli and the firm’s associates have been consistent supporters of 威尼斯人娱乐城, donating generously to the 威尼斯人娱乐城 Law School, The Kansas City Repertory Theatre, the Henry W. Bloch School of Management, the Entrepreneur of the Year program, the 威尼斯人娱乐城 Conservatory and KCUR.
