South Carolina Law alumnus and donor James Samuel "Jim" Konduros, 88, died on Friday,
March 13, 2020.
Konduros, a 1954 graduate, credited the School of Law for helping him develop the
strategic thinking and counseling skills that guided him through a rewarding career that included working with U.S. Sen. Olin Johnston
and Gov. Bob McNair, advising major companies and serving as counsel to a hospital
system CEO and leading several nonprofit organizations.
To further strengthen the legal skills of future law students, Konduros donated more
than $2 million dollars to the law school through the Konduros Fisherman Fund, helping
establish the Konduros Leadership Development Program, the Konduros Public Service Fellowship Program, and the upcoming Palmetto Leader project at the School of Law.
