In Memoriam: Rear Admiral John S. Jenkins, JD '61

Senior Associate Dean Emeritus of Law John S. Jenkins, JD '61, died on April 23. Rear Admiral Jenkins, JAGC, USN (Ret) had served as Judge Advocate General of the Navy and for many years the Judge Advocates Association's representative to the ABA House for Delegates. As the Judge Advocate General of the Navy, his imprint on international law and ethics is still present, three decades after his retirement. At GW Law, Admiral Jenkins taught professional responsibility, and as senior associate dean, his work set the stage for a major renovation of the law school complex. In honor of his 18 years of service to GW Law, friends and colleagues established a scholarship in his name which supports law students who have prior or current military service.
