Law School Wins Prestigious Award

Kudos to our friends at the University of St. Thomas School of Law (MN).  Earlier this month the law school's Community Justice Project, partnering with a local chapter of the NAACP, was named the recipient of the 2010 Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter Partnership Award for Campus-Community Collaboration.  The award includes a monetary prize of $10,000, in this instance presented by the Hon. Alan Page, a "Purple People Eater" (although I'm thinking his judicial robe is a different color).  Pictured is St. Thomas law professor Nekima Levy-Pounds, who directs the Community Justice Project.  The university's press release is here.
