Barbara C. Salken Outstanding Professor of the Year Award

The Barbara C. Salken Outstanding Professor of the Year Award is presented every year at the commencement ceremony to the most outstanding faculty members with the highest academic achievement. From 2001-2008 two faculty members were chosen; a full-time professor and an adjunct professor.

The Barbara C. Salken Outstanding Professor of the Year Award honors the memory of Professor Barbara C. Salken, who served at Pace Law for 13 years teaching criminal law and procedure. Professor Salken was voted as outstanding professor of the year by the graduating classes of 1989, 1991, and 1996; the last time being just months before her tragic death on October 17, 1996, at the age of 49. The Barbara C. Salken Criminal Justice Clinic, under the auspices of John Jay Legal Services, is also named in her honor.
