Professor Thomas F. Blackwell
The Chicago-Kent community is deeply saddened by the sudden death
of Professor Thomas F. Blackwell, along with Dean L. Anthony Sutin
and law student Angela Dales, at Appalachian School of Law in
Virginia.
Professor Blackwell served as a visiting professor of law at
Chicago-Kent, where he taught in the legal writing program, from
August 1997 to May 1999. Upon receiving the news of Professor
Blackwell's death, Chicago-Kent Dean Harold J. Krent issued the
following statement:
"Professor Thomas Blackwell was a talented teacher and scholar
who was respected by both our faculty and our students. His work
focused innovatively on integrating technology into law practice
and the classroom. His death represents a tragic loss to the legal
community and to his many friends and colleagues here at Chicago-Kent.
We extend our deepest sympathy to Professor Blackwell's family
and to our colleagues at Appalachian School of Law."
