(Aug. 19) – The Texas Tech University School of Law became the national headquarters for Scribes—The American Society of Legal Writers effective August 1.

Texas Tech Law Dean Darby Dickerson, whose term as president of the group ended at the beginning of the month, was instrumental in the Scribes’ move. The legal writing organization will be headquartered in Lubbock for at least three years with an option to renew.
