Foundation Thanks Stan Ross for Support of Law and Leadership Institute

The Columbus Bar Foundation thanks board member Stan Ross for his generous financial support of the Law and Leadership Institute over the past two years. Stan’s gift provides a stipend to cover the cost of law student teacher Gina Prescott, a Capital 3L who also taught LLI 9th-graders last summer.

LLI President Carl Smallwood said, “We are very grateful to have Stan as a supporter. Ending its second year, the Law and Leadership Institute uses legal issues as means to inspire students, to train them in research, writing, and oral presentation, and to provide hands-on experience in mock trials and internships. We are preparing students from underserved high schools to succeed in high school, college and beyond.”
