Law PrizesThe John F Kearney Law Gold MedalThe Law Gold Medal, donated by Dr John Kearney QC, may be awarded in January to a student who has fulfilled requirements for graduation in the preceding calendar year. In order to be eligible for the Gold Medal, a student must have completed at least 20 law subjects at Bond University. The best 20 law subjects are used in calculating academic achievement. The medal will only be awarded if there is a graduate of sufficient merit and it will not necessarily be awarded each year. A trophy and $2,000 is awarded annually to the student judged to be the best overall performer in the Faculty of Law during that year. Students will be assessed on the following criteria: - academic performance in all subjects undertaken during that year;
- performance in mooting, negotiation and mediation and other practical skills exercises; and
- other relevant activities, such as public speaking, student or community services.
