CALT Prize for Academic Excellence
This Prize honours exceptional contribution to research and law teaching by a Canadian law teacher in mid-career.
This year's recipient is Prof. Laverne Jacobs, Professor, Associate Dean, Research & Graduate Studies at the University of Windsor Faculty of Law
Prof. Jacobs is an accomplished and respected teacher, researcher, administrator and social justice advocate. The Adjudication Committee Chair noted:
"....the number, breadth, depth and remarkable positivity of the reference letters that accompanied Prof. Jacob’s nomination for this prize. Her peers, students and members of her community seemed so excited to have the opportunity to speak enthusiastically to her many accomplishments- they were a pleasure to read, and constituted a real tribute to Prof. Jacob’s broad and enduring impact."
We are delighted to congratulate all of the winners, grateful to our Awards Committee members and looking forward to the next iteration of the CALT awards.
