  • From the Dean's Desk Fall Is Shaping up to Be a Great
    From the Dean’s Desk Fall is shaping up to be a great season for Baylor Lawyers. First, John Eddie Williams Jr. (JD ’78) was named the Baylor University Alumnus of the Year. Williams has been a great friend to both Baylor Law and Baylor University. John Eddie and Sheridan provided a lead gift for the construction of the Sheila and Walter Umphrey Law Center and most recently made a very generous gift to the new Baylor Stadium that will sit on the banks of the Brazos River directly across from the Law School. Second, the Hon. Leonard E. Davis (JD ’76), Chief Judge of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, has been named the 2012 Baylor Lawyer of the Year. He was surprised with the announce- ment at the Bench and Bar Conference of the Eastern District of Texas. Finally, a survey of litigators conducted by The American Lawyer selected Baylor Lawyer, the Hon. James Rod- ney Gilstrap (JD ’81) of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, as one of “10 Federal Judges to Watch.” You can read all about them in this issue of the Rocket Docket. Also in this issue, you’ll meet some more of our terrific faculty and staff colleagues and see a photo gallery of Baylor’s Homecoming parade. And don’t forget, Baylor Law Alumni Weekend is just around the corner! You can get details on events and registration in this issue of the Rocket Docket.
