The Political Science Department at UL Lafayette has up to six Tom and Lena Ritchie Endowed Memorial Scholarships to award. The scholarships are $1500 each for students in any academic major who plan on attending law school in Fall 2005.

The application deadline is Oct. 15. This means students must take the LSAT by Oct. 2 to receive priority consideration. For more information, contact Dr. Rick Swanson, pre-law adviser at (337) 482-6164 or by email at ras2777@louisiana.edu.
