With the first snow of the season beginning to fall in Williamsburg, today was the final day of classes at the William and Mary Law School. Which means that my time serving as the inaugural Joseph T. Waldo Visiting Chair in Property Rights Law is beginning to wrap up. There’s still the reading period, exams, and grading, but today was the last day we met as a class.
What a great law school, and wonderful students. I learned way more than I conveyed. A welcoming administration, faculty and staff, too. This was the best experience of my professional life.
A huge thank you to law school dean Davison Douglas, and Professors Lynda Butler and James Stern, for guiding and supporting me, and making me feel like I belonged. And to my students, who challenged me. And, of course to Joe Waldo, who made it all possible.
