Todd Henderson on Manne Madness
ICLE Academic Affiliate M. Todd Henderson was cited in a press release by the University of Chicago announcing his victory in the Law & Economics Center at George Mason University Antonin Scalia Law School’s inaugural Manne Madness Tournament. You can read the full piece here.
The final victor? The Law School’s own M. Todd Henderson, the Michael J. Marks Professor of Law. Henderson earned the coveted national title, alongside a trophy, well-deserved bragging rights, and a $50,000 cash prize. (The trophy was a large hand-carved wooden gavel.)
For Henderson, the true reward of the experience existed beyond the prizes and praise. “Typical discussion of a paper draws a dozen or so marginally interested academics,” he said. “Here, I had the opportunity to deliver six hours of lectures to 150 or 160 highly engaged judges. That’s about as big an impact as you can have.”
