The Hon. Gary Hicks ASP'70

Now a retired New Hampshire Supreme Court Justice, Hicks attended the Advanced Studies Program in the summer of 1970. After earning an undergraduate degree in mathematics from Bucknell University in 1975 and a law degree from Boston University in 1978, he worked in private practice in Manchester, N.H. for 23 years and was sworn in as the 104th justice of the New Hampshire Supreme Court in 2006. Hicks has said that “St. Paul’s School and the ASP obviously changed my life,” reflecting on the lasting impact the program had on his personal and professional journey.
