This week's edition features Professor Francine Lipman, student Marta Kurshumova, and alumna Holly Walker '14.
Professor Lipman, Boyd Professor of Law, is an elected member of the American Law Institute, the American College of Tax Counsel, and the American Bar Foundation as well as the author of numerous articles on tax and accounting issues. In both her teaching and scholarship, she draws on an exceptional record of experience as an accountant and lawyer.
After leaving Bulgaria and her family at the age of 19, Kurshumova attended Wesleyan College in Macon, Ga. before coming to Boyd, "one of the proudest moments" of her life.
Walker is a judicial law clerk to Justice Michael L. Douglas at the Supreme Court of Nevada. Born and raised in Las Vegas, she has always been dedicated to pursuing her education here and says that Boyd faculty and staff have always been supportive.
