2020 AIPLA Past Presidents Award

Dorien Clark (JD ’21) beat contenders nation-wide to clinch the 2020 AIPLA Past Presidents Award. The merit-based scholarship award recognizes a law student who has excelled in the study of intellectual property law. Started in 2014, this is the first time a student from UIC John Marshall Law School has received the Award. Past Award winners include law students from Stanford Law School, the George Washington University School of Law, and Chicago-Kent College of Law, Illinois Institute of Technology. The AIPLA Past Presidents Award is given to the runner-up in the Jan Jancin Award competition and is open to rising second and third-year law students from diverse backgrounds who are underrepresented racial or ethnic minorities, who have expressed an interest in pursuing a career as an intellectual property lawyer, and who have engaged in activities reflecting that interest. UIC Law attracts the most diverse student population in the Midwest and we have one the most established intellectual property programs in the country. Our IP Law Fellow Kyle Serilla identified Dorien as an outstanding member of our intellectual property student community. We worked closely with him to showcase those strengths to AIPLA. We are pleased that they agreed with us.
