Faculty Recognized for Outstanding Scholarship, Public Service

Faculty Recognized for Outstanding Scholarship, Public Service Anonymous (not verified) Wed, 10/03/2018 - 16:26

Associate Professor Anna Spain Bradley received this year’s Gamm Justice Award for her book in progress, The Impact of One: How Individual Choice Shapes International Law (under contract, Cambridge University Press), which examines decision making in international law through the lens of neuroscience. The Gamm Award was established by ��«��Ƶ attorney Gordon Gamm to encourage faculty to explore critical issues in “justice” broadly defined, and is given annually for outstanding written work in this area.

Professor Jennifer Hendricks and Associate Professor Sloan Speck received the Jules Milstein Scholarship Award for their recent articles. Hendricks’ article, “Fathers and Feminism: The Case Against Genetic Entitlement,” published in Tulane Law Review, makes the case against a nascent consensus among feminist and other progressive scholars about men’s parental rights, arguing that today’s most progressive proposals to reform parentage law disregard the mother’s existing parental rights and transfer too much power from women to men.

Speck’s article, “Tax Planning and Policy Drift,” published in Tax Law Review, identifies a third category of policy drift, “planning drift,” and proposes a framework for analyzing how private-sector legal interpretations influence public policy.

The Milstein Award, funded by a gift from Marvin Wolf (’54) creating an endowed fund in memory of his father-in-law, Jules Milstein, recognizes substantial published works that best demonstrate excellence in legal scholarship.

Dean Anaya also recognized Clinical Professor Emeritus Norm Aaronson with the Clifford Calhoun Public Service Award. For much of his 40 years at Colorado Law, Aaronson has taught the Civil Practice Clinic, which has helped countless people secure their Social Security disability benefits, assisted distraught clients navigating contentious marital dissolutions, and won asylum hearings for immigrants fleeing violence and persecution in their home countries. His commitment to teaching extends beyond his students—for the past eight years, he has taught English as a Second Language to a growing network of Sudanese asylees, having begun as an English class for one of the clinic clients for whom Aaronson and his students secured asylum. In nominating Aaronson for the award, his colleagues noted that he “has inspired all of us with his deep and abiding commitment to teaching law students how to advocate for some of the poorest and most vulnerable people in our community."

Annual faculty awards go to Aaronson, Hendricks, Spain Bradley, and Speck
