The most rewarding part of law school by far has been my leadership experience through Law Women. Law Women was founded at the University of Tennessee College of Law more than fifty years ago in 1973. The organization’s mission is simple: empower women and encourage them to pursue leadership in their future career, no matter what path they take as an attorney. Within this broad goal lies a focus on networking, mentorship, career opportunities, academic success, and education about issues specific to women in the legal field.
