Tax Prof Thomas B. Allington retired last week after 37 years on the Indiana-Indianapolis faculty.  From the press release:

Tom Allington’s IU career has spanned over three decades and three different buildings. He joined the faculty in 1970 after teaching at the University of South Dakota School of Law. … Aside from the intricacies of tax law, his area of greatest expertise is undoubtedly technology. In his capacity as resident computer guru, he worked on the planning committee for the current building, Inlow Hall, and helped bring the law school’s facilities into the 21st century. During his career he has served as Associate Dean for Academic Affairs (1990-1997) and as Associate Dean for Technology (and webmaster) since 1999. Allington will also be remembered for contributing his talents as a pilot to the service of the law school. He used his Beechcraft Musketeer single-engine plane to fly Dean Lefstein and others to an alumni event in Evansville.

Friends and colleagues of Allington gathered on April 25th to wish him a happy retirement (and a happy birthday as well).
