There is an emerging need of encouraging diversity in every aspect of life whether it is work or academics. Luckily, today’s youth is aware and contributing to addressing and eliminating the issues regarding diversity such as inequality and discrimination. The youth has been urging America to open its eyes to the lack of diversity in the professional world. As a result of this, a huge push to expand diversity and representation in the entertainment industry has been seen. Besides workplaces, our educators and teachers also lack diversity. The interesting fact is that the legal field remains one of the least diverse of any profession according to a survey. Law Offices of Doroshow, Pasquale, Krawitz & Bhaya understand very well the need of promoting diversity in law and that is why they have come up with an amazing program named “DP Law Encouraging Diversity Scholarship”.
This funding opportunity has been made available for any current high school senior, college student, or graduate student who is residing in one of the 50 states or in Washington DC and who is enrolled in a two to a five-year post-secondary institution for the Spring 2022 semester. This scholarship has the primary purpose of increasing and promoting diversity in the legal profession. Candidates who are interested in this program will have to write down an essay describing their motivation behind choosing law as their career field and what kind of law they want to pursue. The most engaging and creative essay will be selected as a winner.
