 * Keep: Simply being an orphan for a long time is not a valid rationale for deletion. The subject appears to pass WP:NPROF#5 as a named chair (actually, multiple named chairs). Curbon7 (talk) 22:50, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep and improve, the subject of the article meets notability criteria for professors per Curbon7's note above. It seems they have two named chairs. Netherzone (talk) 23:09, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep. In addition to the above, this guy is so known in his field that his textbook is named after him (Scott and Ascher on Trusts). -- asilvering (talk) 00:49, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep as above. The nominator, who has been editing for less than two months, might like to study WP:Before. Xxanthippe (talk) 04:54, 24 September 2023 (UTC).

 * Keep. Being an orphan is no grounds for deletion. As others have pointed out the multiple named chairs meet WP:PROF. Espresso Addict (talk) 21:03, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep - I fleshed out the article some. Still needs work. A Google search turned up wide coverage, including in law reviews. Meets notability criteria for professors as cited above and passes WP:GNG. -AuthorAuthor (talk) 22:56, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
