Warner selects eight students for Diversity Scholarships

The law firm of Warner Norcross + Judd LLP has awarded scholarships to eight college students through the Diversity Law, Business and Scholars programs.  

Eman Naga received a Diversity Law Scholarship, a competitive academic scholarship for students of color administered and awarded by Grand Rapids Community Foundation. Gavin Savercool was selected for the Clearing Sky Christensen/Warner Norcross + Judd Business Scholarship, given to a student pursuing a business degree and awarded through an endowment at the Grand Rapids Community College Foundation.  

Warner is sponsoring Caitlin Do, Ali Saad and Ashly Wilkie from Michigan State University, and Christian Ledford, Carla Valdes and Micah Wright from Wayne State University as part of the first year in the JD Advising Scholars Program, providing one-on-one tutoring, resources and opportunities for mentoring from and connecting with law firm sponsors.

Warner has provided more than $250,000 to support programs that encourage students of color and other underrepresented groups to pursue a law career. To date, scholarships have assisted 126 students.

To qualify for the JD Advising Scholars Program, a student must have been enrolled in an American Bar Association-accredited law school for fall 2022, must have a minimum of a 3.0 undergraduate GPA or a 160 score on the Law School Aptitude Test and must identify as a member of an underrepresented racial, ethnic or gender group, as a member of the LGBTQ community or be disabled.

Warner has offices in Grand Rapids, Detroit, Midland, Macomb County, Kalamazoo, Muskegon, Lansing, Holland and Bloomfield Hills.
