Six Nashville School of Law students have been recognized for their writing achievement in the annual Robert Ballow Excellence in Writing Awards – a result of their performance in the Rigorous Writing Exercise. 

The top performers and their writing mentors are:

The Tennessee Municipal Judges Conference recently honored the late Judge John Harrison Lowe with a scholarship at the Nashville School of Law.  Judge Lowe passed away in March of 2018. He first became a municipal court judge for the City of Millersville in 1981 and previously served as president to the Tennessee Municipal Judges Conference.  He was a graduate of the Nashville School of Law.

Since the COVID-19 pandemic reached Tennessee, the twin goals of Nashville School of Law have been to keep its students, faculty, and staff safe and to keep our doors open. Before classes began in August 2020, the School announced it would allow students and faculty to choose to attend classes – except for skills-based classes – either in person or remotely. The School also announced this policy would apply to all classes offered through December 17, 2020 and that the policy would be reviewed before classes resumed in January.

Results of the midyear administration of the Tennessee Bar Exam, which was pushed back to October, were released on December 9. The following NSL alumni passed the admissions assessment.
