We were privileged to host Vanderbilt Law Professor, Tracey George, for the 3rd Annual Alice Bartee Dinner event that was held on September 19th in the Crystal Ballroom at Kentwood Hall. Channeling Alice Bartee, Professor George presented “The Gavel Gap: Who Sits in Judgment on State Courts.”
The list of distinguished guests encompasses nearly the entire guest list, but were honored by the presence of MSU Board of Governors, Joe Carmichael and Kendall Seal, former Board of Governor, Judge Stephen Bough, MSU President, Clif Smart, Co-Chair of the Springfield Impacting Poverty Committee, Gail Smart, and emeritus Modern and Classical Languages faculty member, Dr. Larry George.
Special thanks to President Smart and Crista Hogan, Executive Director of the Springfield Metropolitan Bar Association, for helping to promote the event.
