Professor Cornelius J. Peck: Outstanding Legal Scholar

It is an honor to be asked to write the introduction to an edition of the Law Review dedicated to Professor Cornelius Peck. To most members of the bar in Washington State, Professor Peck needs no introduction. Perhaps half of them have been his students, in torts and other courses that he taught, and in a very real sense they are his special graduates who will carry on the lessons of integrity, vigor, and social concern that he has practiced throughout his professional life.
