ULV College of Law Hires New Development Director

Ontario, Calif., October 17, 2006 – To support its mission to better serve the Southern California legal community as a valuable resource, University of La Verne College of Law has hired Doug Frost as director of development to plan and implement campaigns in charitable giving. Frost has a legal background in civil litigation involving real estate, corporate and transactions law at Riverside-based Swarner & Fitzgerald, Ontario’s Covington & Crowe, and as a sole practitioner in Upland.

“As both an attorney with practice experience in the state of California and an expert in private giving, Doug Frost brings the College of Law a unique skill set,” said Dean Donald Dunn. “I have no doubt he will be a wonderful asset to our administrative team.”

Frost comes to the College of Law from Veterans Village of San Diego, where he was responsible for establishing a start-up development program. While there, he worked with the governing board to establish priorities for fundraising, analyzed potential donors and initiated contact with new and neglected donors.

While in San Diego, the California native also served as the Development Coordinator for the College of Arts and Letters at San Diego State University (SDSU). After three years as a Coordinator, the University promoted him to Assistant Director of Development, at which time he negotiated bequests to ensure proper allocation and assisted SDSU’s Campanile Foundation in reviving and productively allocating a long-neglected endowment.

“Doug Frost is obviously familiar with the legal community and our region,” Dean Dunn noted. “His proven track record is sure to have a positive effect on our law school and the surrounding legal communities.”

Frost earned his J.D. at the University of San Diego School of Law and has a B.A. in political science from Stanford.
