Political Science Students Attend Pre-Law Scholars Program
Two Belmont political science majors, Ameshia Cross and Fatima Karwandyar, recently attended the William H. Bowen School’s fifth annual Pre-Law Undergraduate Scholars (PLUS) program. The Bowen school is located at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock and is designed to encourage diversity in the legal profession. Cross and Karwandyar embraced a rigorous course of study, which included briefing cases and taking law school exams. Cross described the program as extremely valuable, noting that she “developed a stronger sense of what to expect when applying and getting into law school.”
