The WLAM Foundation is pleased to announce that this year’s Reception will feature a “TED” Talk with Dean Jocelyn Benson (Wayne State University Law School); Phyllis L. Crocker (University of Detroit Mercy School of Law); and Joan W. Howarth (Michigan State University College of Law). The WLAM Foundation’s Reception is also the occasion to introduce the ten 2015 Outstanding Women Law Students chosen to receive a total of $30,000 in scholarships supporting their law school education. The awardees were selected on the basis of demonstrated leadership on women’s issues, through a competitive process.
2015 also marks the WLAM Foundation’s 19th year of making awards to deserving women law students. In that time, 225 awardees have received a total of $530,000 in financial support. The Foundation’s many corporate, law firm and individual donors have given generously to support the WLAMF’s educational mission, and many will also attend the March 25th event. All in all, the Reception offers many reasons to celebrate.
The Awards Reception takes place at the Great Lakes Culinary Center in Southfield, from 5:30 to 7:30, at a suggested donation of $30 per attendee. The reception can also give local attorneys the opportunity to network with other lawyers and donors. The Great Lakes Culinary Center is located at 24101 West Nine Mile Road in Southfield. Please join the WLAM Foundation by registering for the event by March 20th: contact Barb at (248) 740-7003 to charge by phone, or charge online at www.wlamfoundation.org.
The WLAM Foundation’s web site also offers opportunities to support the scholarship fund as a member of the Dean’s List, supporters at levels above $150. Virtually all donations go directly to scholarships, and they are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
