WACO — On the wall outside Jim Dunnam’s office, there’s a green plaque commemorating one of his proudest achievements.

In 2001, his alma mater, Baylor University, named him "Young Lawyer of the Year." The honor was bestowed when Dunnam was a major asset for the private Baptist school — not only as a talented attorney but also as rising star in the Texas House.

Sixteen years later, he has become one of the school's biggest threats.

Dunnam still has deep personal ties to his hometown university. He counts 26 Baylor degrees among members of his close family, and by his count 10 of the 11 lawyers who work in the firm that bears his family name went to law school at Baylor.
