Brooklyn Law School Dean Nick Allard stars in charity roast
Although Nick Allard is not from Brooklyn and became dean of Brooklyn Law School just two years ago, he has quickly become one of the borough’s favorite sons. On Thursday night, Allard was roasted at the law school by former Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz, friends and family to raise money for charity.
“What do you call a law professor who teaches no classes and writes no law reviews?” Stephen Trachtenberg asked jokingly. “A dean.”
The list of roasters included Allard’s wife Marla Allard, Markowitz, Trachtenberg, Andy Cowherd, Hon. Andrew P. Napolitano, a Fox News commentator, Tom McMillen, Peter Kougasian, Allard’s son Nate, Mark Rotenberg, Norm Ornstein, Carol Levine, Vice Dean Michael Cahill, and former students Colin Dedrick and Dwayne Thomas. The emcee for the evening was the Brooklyn Daily Eagle’s own Charisma Troiano, legal affairs editor.
