E. Smythe Gambrell Award Through Cooley's innovative, award-winning Professionalism Plan, which received the American Bar Association's highest recognition for professionalism, the E. Smythe Gambrell Award, Cooley created a culture of professionalism that permeates every part of the school. Everyone at Cooley is challenged to adopt professionalism as a way of life. Most recently, Cooley Law School brought together nearly 60 national leaders in the legal and higher education fields for its inaugural Professionalism Advisory Committee meeting held July 2012. The group identified professionalism issues that most impact the practice of law and higher education and advised Cooley on ways to improve and promote professionalism in legal education.
