Last week, AccessLex held its MAX by AccessLex® Grand Prize Scholarship drawing and awarded two MAX students $40,000 toward their 2018-2019 tuition and other expenses. One of the students was our very own Kourtney Hodge, a rising 2L at the law school. The other was Andrea Shaia of Case Western Reserve University School of Law.
Each semester, the Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs calls for nominations of outstanding graduating students who have maintained high academic achievements while contributing exceptional leadership and service to the University and our community. This year, an extraordinary student, Alison Stephens, was nominated by the Professional and Career Development Center Director, Molly Wilensky, for the award. On May 11, Stephens and the other honorees were recognized at a breakfast celebration.
