LAW GRAD RECOGNIZED FOR WORK IN MENTORSHIP PROGRAM Megan West Sherron (’10 Law) accepted a 2016 E. Smythe Gambrell Professionalism Award from the American Bar Association at the organization’s annual meeting in San Francisco in August. Sherron, now the assistant dean of external relations at Campbell Law School, accepted the award on behalf of Campbell Law Connections, the mentorship program which she oversees. Connections exposes students and newly minted attorneys to valuable learning opportunities and experiences by partnering them with practicing legal professionals. In addition to the award, Sherron collected a cash prize of $3,500 that will go toward the program’s operational budget. “This program is a success because of the commitment of our students to learn and gain experience,” says Sherron, “as well as the willingness of members of the Wake County Bar Association to mentor the next generation of Campbell lawyers.” Connections, a joint endeavor between Campbell Law and the Wake County Bar Association, builds upon the law school’s professionalism focus that permeates its core curriculum. Students in the Connections program develop meaningful professional relationships and a more thorough understanding of the responsibilities and ethics demanded by the practice of law under the tutelage of a mentor. The program began with a pilot phase during the spring 2014 semester, and was opened to the third-year class and expanded to the entire academic year at the beginning of the fall 2014 semester. More than 100 established and seasoned practicing legal professionals have already served as professional mentors for the program. The honor marks the second time a Campbell Law program has received the coveted award, as the law school previously collected it in 2003 for the First-Year Professionalism Development Series.
