McDowell Jr., C. Blake Professorship (Civil Procedure)
The C. Blake McDowell Jr. Professorship Fund was established in 1999 through a magnanimous bequest from the estate of C. Blake McDowell Jr. Mr. McDowell’s bequest to the School of Law was given without restrictions. The largest gift to be received in the history of the School of Law, Mr. McDowell’s gift was transformational in nature for the School of Law and the law center that bears the McDowell Family name. Today, a portion of Mr. McDowell’s gift is being used to recognize academic excellence and retain high-quality faculty members and to provide for the recruitment of new high-quality faculty members at The University of Akron School of Law.
