The WLS Scholarship

WLS awarded the first WLS Scholarship in 1966, when it awarded $250 to Barbara McCallum. Ms. McCallum was a student at McGeorge School of Law who later served as president of WLS. The WLS Scholarship is awarded to a financially needy first or second year law student whose achievements are consistent with WLS's goals of advancing the position of women in law and society, but who may not meet the criteria applicable for WLS's other scholarships.
