Spring 2026 issue


Welcome to Res Gestae, Utah Law's alumni magazine!

In this issue, we highlight Utah Law's Real Estate Development class, taught by Adjunct Professor Kevin Murray. Alumnae Jazmynn Pok (JD '21) and Alyssa (Campbell) Diel (JD '23), who took the class as students, discuss the real-world experience that jump-started their careers.

We also feature our seven 2026 Alumni Award winners, including Christina Jepson (JD ’95), Phillip W. Lear (JD ’75), Jon M. Lear (JD ’76), Anne Milne (JD '76), Raelene Blocker (MLS '19), Sydney Sell (JD '19), and Victoria Carrington (JD '23).

Finally, we speak to Mike Mower (JD '93), who currently serves as Utah Gov. Spencer Cox's senior advisor for community relations and has worked with three of Utah's governors in his career.

Learn more about the Class of 1975's Academic Support Program Endowment and how you can support it. You can also see photos of our Alumni Awards and Golden Gavel celebrations.
