Description
Often in symposium issues, it is customary for the organizer to prepare a foreword that introduces each author and presents a brief synopsis of each article. As is true for most symposia, the authors in this issue (and their articles) are worthy of such praise and attention. I hope you will read and enjoy each of the articles, but this foreword is not going to summarize or describe them. Instead, with the indulgence of the other authors, this foreword will focus on Dale Whitman--in whose honor these articles were prepared and presented at the University of Missouri-Columbia School of Law on April 13 and 14, 2007. Throughout his long career, Dale Whitman has been one of the leading intellectual lights in the field of mortgage law. Since he began his teaching career at the University of North Carolina, Dale has achieved an impressive and sustained record of outstanding scholarship. He has published 37 articles and 8 books (most in multiple editions)--including Real Estate Finance Law, the definitive authority on the mortgage law field (now in its Fifth Edition). As the list in the appendix to this foreword indicates, Dale's partnership with Grant Nelson must certainly rank as one of the most productive academic partnerships in all of American legal scholarship.
