  • At Baylor Law School We Are Expecting Another Great Year After a Stellar 2012
    From The Dean’s Desk Welcome to 2013! At Baylor Law School we are expecting another great year after a stellar 2012. Last year, our trial advocacy students took home first and second place at the National Trial Competition and first place at the National Institute for Trial Advocacy Tournament of Champions. In the triple crown of law school advocacy competi- tions, Baylor Law took home two of the crowns! Later this month, our National Moot Court regional champs will head to New York City to compete for the national title. Nearly 30 interscholastic advocacy teams are guided by our faculty and adjunct faculty members who lead as coaches, as well as by many Baylor Lawyers who give their time and experience to critique students during their practice rounds. As always, we are so proud of our alumni and we love to hear about the exciting career and personal paths Baylor Lawyers have taken. In this month’s Rocket Docket we catch up with Lance Harvey (JD ‘95), who has moved away from his legal career to take over and re-launch his family’s educational tours company. Student Tours of America works with educators to provide youngsters from around the country with an opportunity to see the cities and landmarks that played a major role in developing our nation. Sadly, sometimes we have to say goodbye to some of our Baylor Lawyers. Last month we lost a longtime friend and supporter when Joe Allbritton (LLB ‘49) passed away on Dec. 12. Allbritton and his family faithful- ly supported Baylor Law School, establishing the Abner V.

  • Irving Lowens and the Washington Star: the Vision, the Demise
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: IRVING LOWENS AND THE WASHINGTON STAR: THE VISION, THE DEMISE Janice E. Holly, Doctor of Philosophy, 2007 Directed by: Professor Shelley G. Davis School of Music Division of Musicology and Ethnomusicology Irving Lowens (1916-1983) was a polymath who possessed an extraordinary intellect and boundless energy. A musicologist of first rank, he made seminal contributions to the study of music in America. Founder of the Society for American Music (formerly the Sonneck Society) and, through his affiliation with the Library of Congress, a leader in the mid 20th-century endeavors of the Music Library Association, he also contributed immeasurably to progress in American musicological enterprise. Having labored throughout his life as educator, composer, librarian, scholar, world traveler, de facto ambassador, and even chess player, Lowens is especially suited for designation as a public intellectual. Self-described as “bookish,” Lowens was by virtue of long established habit an inveterate reader and writer. Having transplanted himself, by circuitous route, from his native New York City to Washington, D.C., he became a regular reader of the Washington Star, then newspaper of record in the nation’s capital. In December 1953, Lowens penned a letter to the editor praising the work of the Star’s new music critic Day Thorpe. Shortly thereafter, the Irving Lowens byline made its first appearance in the newspaper. Thus began a relationship that dramatically changed Lowens’s professional life, and ultimately helped to change, for the better, the musical landscape of Washington. This dissertation chronicles the symbiotic relationship forged between Irving Lowens and the Washington Star, from its quiet beginnings through its years of achievement in supporting, upholding, and respecting concert life in the nation’s capital, and, finally, to its sad dénouement.

  • May 11, 1966 Baptist Team to Dig for Lost City of Ai
    May 11, 1966 Baptist Team To Dig For Lost City of Ai EDITOR'S NOTE: Joseph A. Callaway, Ai project director, will appear on nationwide television on the CBS-TV program "To Tell The Truth," May 24 at 3:00 p.m. New York Time. Check local listings for time and station in your area. By Pat Pattillo LOUISVILLE, Ky. (BP)--Ten miles north of Jericho, above the Jordan Valley, eight Southern Baptists and their associates will be digging this summer for the lost city of Ai. It could be the site of Joshua's second conquest in the Jordan area; but, says project director Joseph A. Callaway, last year's findings indicate it prob~bly isn't. "Down through five layers of civilizat;ion, we found the ruins of a great walled city, in the style of the Pharoahs of Egypt around 2900 to 2500 B.C.," he said, "and this con­ vinces me that what we've discovered isn't the city Joshua took." Callaway, associate professor of biblical archaeology at the Southerrt Baptist Theological Seminary here, is a veteran of eight previous expeditions in the Jordan area. This is his second year as project director for the site which -- despite the evidence--is still called "Ai ." His wife, who has become an archaeological enthusiast by necessity (her basement is full of broken pottery and Palestinian ruins), will serve as the camp administrator, fuss;ng with the Arab cook at 4:30 a.m. about breakfast food. She's also an accomplished hand. at finding, fitting and gluing together bits and pieces of larger objects which reveal ancient ways of life.
