Professor Emeritus Arthur R. Landever joined the faculty at Cleveland-Marshall in 1972 after teaching political science and history at Brooklyn College, Long Island University and the University of Minnesota, and completing a stint in private law practice. He was a graduate of New York University, where he earned AB, JD, and PhD degrees. Prof. Landever was a member of Phi Beta Kappa at NYU, and he received the Elihu Root-Samuel J. Tilden Scholarship for three years of study at the NYU School of Law, for his distinguished scholastic record and unusual capacity for public leadership. Known for his signature bowties and perpetually welcoming demeanor, Prof. Landever taught and wrote on constitutional law and the Supreme Court until his retirement in 2007. He was passionate about racial equality and the “rule of law,” protecting those who have been persecuted against the most in our country. He was a beloved professor and member of the Cleveland-Marshall family. After retiring, Prof. Landever remained a frequent presence in the Law Building and continued as director of the twice-annual Great Stories Program, focusing on the great works of literature and their interaction with the law.
