Professor Wesson Named Gilbert Goldstein Faculty Fellow

The 2009-10 Gilbert Goldstein Faculty Fellowship was awarded to Professor Marianne Wesson. Topping the list of applicants, she will be using the fellowship to continue work on her latest book Unquiet Grave: The Supreme Court and the Hillmon Case. The book details the 19^th Century case that sought to determine who was buried in John Hillmon’s grave. While the mystery remains unsolved, the case did result in the formation of an important rule of evidence.
