This award is very meaningful because it is student led. I am both grateful and overjoyed to receive it. @UAlbertaLaw
Though she stands at the front of the classroom, #UAlbertaLaw Prof. Tamara Pearl strives to ensure everyone’s on even footing. This “anti-dominance” approach is rooted in anti-colonialism and stems from both her research and her life. Her perspective on teaching, combined with her dedication to empowering the next generation, has earned Pearl the 2024 Tevie H. Miller Teaching Excellence Award. Congratulations, Prof. Pearl!
