Faculty, Student, and Staff Team Leadership Awards

April 17, 2001

Students, faculty, and staff packed the Law School atrium on Tuesday, April 17, to honor one another with the SBA's newly created Team Leadership Awards. The awards honor those at the Law School who have gone above and beyond to create a supportive and cooperative learning environment that fosters mutual respect for differing ideas, perspectives, and backgrounds.

The student body voted to name some of the awards in honor of particular faculty members. SBA President Isaac Robinson began the ceremony by presenting plaques to Professor Joyce A Hughes (left), Professor Thomas F. Geraghty, and Professor Robert W. Bennett.

Each academic year the Hughes Leadership Award will be presented to two LLMs; the Geraghty Leadership Award will be presented to two first-year students; and the Bennett Group Leadership awards will be presented to two student organizations and their advisers. Several other student leadership awards and faculty and staff appreciation awards were also presented. Awards and recipients are listed below.
