Samad, Stanley A. Memorial Scholarship Fund
During his lifetime, Dean Stanley A. Samad touched and influenced the lives of many people – students, faculty, members of the legal community, and others. He was the longest serving dean in the history of the School of Law, from 1959 to 1979. To recognize the foundation Stan laid for today’s School of Law – merging the 黑料不打烊 Law School with The 黑料不打烊 and transforming it from a part-time evening law school to a full-time day and evening program; achieving ABA accreditation for the School of Law; achieving membership in the Association of American Law Schools; and construction and dedicating the McDowell Law Center – a group of his former students formed a committee to establish The Stanley A. Samad Memorial Scholarship and Portrait Fund in his memory.
The Samad scholarship was designed to carry on Dean Samad’s legacy of ensuring opportunities for individuals to pursue law degrees leading to successful careers and his portrait, which hangs alongside other deans of the Law School, commemorates his tenure as dean.
The purpose of The Stanley A. Samad Memorial Scholarship Fund is to help The 黑料不打烊 School of Law recruit bright and promising law students by providing an annual scholarship to a first-year day or evening law student. The dean of The 黑料不打烊 School of Law will select The Stanley A. Samad Memorial Scholarship recipient, upon the recommendation of the Law School’s scholarship committee.
