Professor Wolff Awarded Dukeminier Prize

The Williams Institute at UCLA Law School announced in May that Professor Tobias Barrington Wolff was awarded the Dukeminier Prize for excellence in scholarship on the rights of gay men and lesbians. The Dukeminier Awards acknowledges and distributes in a single volume the best published articles by scholars, lawyers, judges, and law students on sexual orientation law in the United States.

Wolff's principle fields of research are constitutional law, sexuality and the law, and civil procedure. He is one of the nation's leading authorities on the U.S. military's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy. He co-authored the second edition of Civil Procedure: Theory and Practice with Linda Silberman and Allan Stein.

While a visiting professor at Northwestern Law School for the fall of 2005, Wolff was awarded the Outstanding First-Year Course Professor Award.
