The Am Jur award goes to the highest grade (or final exam score) in
each class at participating schools. It is well known among law
students at those schools.
Quoting Susan Freiman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Yes, if the American Jurisprudence Awards are the corporate
recognition
given by Lawyer's [not Lawyers'?] Coop Pub and the Bancroft-Whitney
Co..

I'm off topic and I'll be brief. Any response is appreciated.
I am doing some research on a political candidate who touts
having
won several American Jurisprudence Awards. This doesn't google
very
well. I found the following at USC:
"The Lawyer's Cooperative Publishing Company and the
Bancroft-Whitney
Company offer their corporate recognition to students who receive
the
highest grade in particular classes. Rather than participate in
this
commercial marketing enterprise, USC allows individual students
who
receive the highest grade in a particular course to indicate that
information on their resumes."
MY QUESTION:
Am I reading correctly that this award goes to the top student in
a
particular subject at his respective school? Is this something
like
Who's Who for undergraduates?
Not knocking this if you have won it. I acknowledge that the top
grade
in any class at any law school is an achievement.
Thanks
