About John W. Hager
For nearly 40 years, Professor John W. Hager set a standard for superior classroom teaching, intellectual integrity and professionalism at the TU College of Law. His commitment to quality in the classroom influenced the lives and careers of thousands of students.
Known to his law students as the “King of Torts,” a reference to one of the courses he taught for more than 30 years, Hager was one of the most popular teachers in the history of the University. He received the University’s first campus-wide Distinguished Teaching Award in 1980 and was named several times as Teacher of the Year by the College of Law Student Bar Association.
Born in Magnum, Oklahoma, Hager received his bachelor’s and law degrees from the University of Oklahoma and his master’s degree in law from New York University. He taught at the TU College of Law from 1950 until 1989, when he retired and was named Professor Emeritus. He died at age 70 on August 22, 1991.
The John W. Hager Distinguished Lectureship was established in Professor Hager’s honor to bring eminent professionals each year to the Tulsa legal community to share their ideas on law and justice.
