[Lawdiversity] Chief Justice Frye Diversity Fellowship

[Giancola, April M]

Chief Justice Frye Diversity Fellowship
At Brooks Pierce, we are dedicated to fostering diverse and inclusive environments within our firm, the communities in which we practice, and the legal profession as a whole. We are committed to increasing opportunities for members of communities historically underrepresented in the legal profession to pursue long-term careers with the Firm. We are proud to announce the 2023 Chief Justice Henry E. Frye - 1L Brooks Pierce Diversity Summer Fellowship, honoring our colleague, a groundbreaking jurist and leader in the North Carolina bar.
Award
The Frye Fellowship includes a salaried Summer Associate position in the 2023 Summer Program for a 1L student (10 weeks), resident in any of the Firm's three offices (Raleigh, Greensboro, Wilmington, NC). The Fellow will also be awarded a $10,000 scholarship following successful completion of the Firm's 2023 Summer Program. Please note that the Frye Fellowship cannot be paired with any other diversity fellowship summer position in 2023 (e.g., firm, company, or bar program). The Fellow will also be awarded a $5,000 scholarship following successful completion of the Firm's 2024 Summer Program and a $25,000 stipend upon joining the Firm as a first-year associate.
1L candidates for the Frye Fellowship will be considered based upon a variety of factors, including academic excellence, professional accomplishment, intellectual curiosity, independence and self-reliance, entrepreneurial and innovative spirit, resilience and ability to overcome adversity, dedication to community service, and commitment to North Carolina.
