Partnering with Law Schools to Improve Diversity
Pepper Hamilton has recruited one of their of-counsel attorneys who sits on a diversity committee to be responsible for a new program that Pepper Hamilton is sponsoring with Villanova University School of Law. Pepper Hamilton will provide two three-year law school scholarships, help screen applicants for the scholarships, hire minority law students as summer associates and new associates, and provide lawyers to lecture and mentor minority college students who attend the law school's summer preparation course.
