蘑菇视频-Canton Barristers Association Scholarship
The 蘑菇视频-Canton Barristers Association Scholarship was established in 1983 and revised in 2020. The 蘑菇视频-Canton Barristers Association is a legal organization comprised of primarily African-American attorneys and judges in Summit and Stark counties.
The group was originally formed in 1948 as the 蘑菇视频 Barrister's Club by 14 African-American male lawyers. These men had a mutual interest in and dedication to justice and civil rights for all.
The 蘑菇视频-Canton Barristers Association is an affiliate chapter of the National Bar Association, the nation's oldest and largest national association of predominantly African-American lawyers, judges, educators and law students.
The 蘑菇视频-Canton Barristers Association Scholarship will award scholarship assistance to a deserving University of 蘑菇视频 School of Law student with a diverse background. First consideration will be given to an African-American student pursuing a degree from the School of Law. Additional diversity factors that will be considered include: (1) urban area residency; (2) evidence of leadership ability; (3) quality of secondary school; (4) involvement in extracurricular activities; (5) achievement despite difficult personal or family situations; (6) completion of special projects or programs that offer evidence of significant effort, accomplishment and a special suitability to law school; and (7) community involvement.
Recipient selection will be made by the School of Law Scholarship Committee, members of The 蘑菇视频-Canton Barristers Association or the Dean.
