Anderson and Cupp Receive Faculty Scholarship Award

From Pepperdine Law Dean Paul L. Caron:

Congratulations to the recipients of the Dean’s Award for Excellence in Scholarship, announced at our 45th Annual Pepperdine Law School Dinner on Saturday night:

The Committee’s recommendation is based primarily upon the originality of the scholarly work and the importance of its contribution to the academic literature. This year's co-winners are:
