Concord Law School grad Dolan Williams shares lessons learned – and his commitment to family

That’s exactly where Dolan Williams found himself in 2010.

“There were probably three major rounds of layoffs per year,” Williams says. “I knew it was a matter of time before I was next. I decided that I needed to make a change, but I just didn’t know what that was.”

With his wife at home taking care of their three children and a fourth on the way, there was added pressure.

Then he got a crazy idea. He turned to his wife and asked, “What if I became a lawyer?”

Backed by his family, Williams discovered Concord Law School at Purdue Global, Purdue’s online university for working adults. Its reputation and flexibility made it a good choice for him and his family.

Note: Williams served as Purdue Global’s Winter 2023 Commencement speaker. The text of his commencement speech and video of the speech are available online.
