Excellence in Legal Research Program

Eligibility & Award

🏆 U.V. JONES AWARD 🏆

Celebrating excellence in legal research, the U.V. Jones Award honors the incredible career of Texas Tech Law Librarian U.V. Jones. Each year, this prestigious award is granted to the ELR Program student with the highest average score on their final assessments—an achievement that showcases dedication, skill, and mastery in legal research.

đź’° Award Amount: $250
The award will be processed through the recipient’s financial aid package. If there’s room under the annual cost of attendance cap, the award will be disbursed. If the cap has been reached, the award will reduce the student loan balance instead.
