Oliver Rasch Award

 

This award was created by the Editorial Board of the Journal of The Missouri Bar to recognize outstanding substantive articles appearing in the Journal.

Named after the late long-time member and former chair of the Editorial Board, Oliver Rasch, the award carries with it a cash stipend of $500 from the Missouri Bar Foundation. 

The Editorial Board makes a recommendation to the Board of Trustees of the Foundation for its consideration.  The award winner is selected by the Board of Trustees at its June meeting, and the award is presented at the Annual Meeting of The Missouri Bar.

For more information, contact Mischa Buford Epps at The Missouri Bar.
