This year, the California Bar Foundation has recognized three of our students with scholarships! Luthien Niland (JD 12) and Angela Kelley (JD 12) each received a $5,000 Public Interest Scholarship. Nicole Edwards-Masuda (JD 11) received a Rosenthal Bar Exam Scholarship.
The Foundation’s Public Interest Scholarships are designed to “recognize law students who demonstrate superior academic achievement, a sustained and extensive commitment to public service, often while overcoming serious personal hardships and obstacles, an intent to pursue a career in public interest law, and financial need.”
The Rosenthal Bar Exam Scholarship Program “recognizes outstanding graduating California law students . . . who are embarking on careers in public service law by providing financial support for costs related to taking the California Bar Exam.”
Having worked closely with Luthien, Angela and Nicole, I can think of few students who deserve this honor more. Congratulations! - Leeor Neta
