“I am extremely honored to receive this award from NAWL. I have a passion for public interest which I have pursued during my time in law school by serving on the Richmond Women's Law Executive Board for all three years. This allowed me to invest both in my law school community and the Richmond community at large by facilitating programs for young women lawyers. I plan to continue this passion for investing in my community by working in the education law field after graduation.”

- Rebekah Carico, a graduating student from the University of Richmond School of Law.
