Doug Blaze, Dean and Art Stolnitz and Elvin E. Overton Distinguished Professor of Law, was recently selected by the University of Tennessee Alumni Association as the 2015 recipient of the annual Alumni Public Service Award. The selection committee cited Dean Blaze’s work with the UT Legal Clinic, UT Pro Bono, and “commitment to the advancement of students and faculty” as factors in their decision.
The Alumni Public Service Award recognizes faculty and staff members who make substantial contributions to the welfare and good of the state or national public. Blaze will be presented with the award at the annual Board of Governor’s Dinner on June 5.
