Also not yet sure what type of law she'd like to practice, Lee is leaning toward business or criminal law. Maldonado said he had been torn between pursuing a graduate degree in English and attending law school. He said the scholarship feels like a reward after a struggle to pay for his education. This scholarship was presented to me through a professor who knew my capabilities, work ethic and financial situation. As a result, I am now going to be able to graduate with a lesser debt and greater sanity.
Hard work does pay off.
Belkys Torres, a senior from Miami majoring in English and Spanish, plans to attend Stetson's College of Law and ultimately practice international law. The scholarship helped me complete my course studies at Stetson and served as an incentive to prepare for the LSAT exam. I'm extremely privileged to have received such a prestigious honor and hope that many other students may also benefit from such a rewarding program.
