Houston attorney Alexander A. Kuiper, an alumni of South Texas College of Law Houston, has established an endowed distinguished professorship of national security law at STCL Houston in anticipation of the law school’s centennial year in 2023.

With a substantial gift, Kuiper and his wife, Hillary, established the Gary A. Kuiper Distinguished Professorship of National Security Law in honor of his late father. The professorship is designed to support a noted law professor whose scholarship focuses on national security. On behalf of the faculty, South Texas president and Dean Michael F. Barry awarded the professorship to professor Geoffrey S. Corn, a nationally and internationally recognized expert in national security law and the international law of armed conflict.
