The Pre-Law Program is currently in the process of completing the endowment of a Pre-Law Scholarship for eligible members of the Program. Several prominent local Jacksonville attorneys, including Edward Booth, Maria Keebler, and Barry Sinoff, have already become major contributors to

the Scholarship Fund. It is anticipated that the Scholarship will be available for Program applications for the 2004-5 academic year. The Scholarship will be based on a combination of scholastic achievement, service, and membership in the Pre-Law Program.
