Calling all Carpatho-Rusyn law students

Time is running out, but if you know somebody of Ruthenian (Carpatho-Rusyn) descent who is enrolled in an accredited law school in the greater Chicago area, The Bohemian Lawyers Association of Chicago is offering a $1,500 scholarship.

The deadline to apply is March 31, and you can find the application here.

Competition for the scholarship from Illinois' oldest ethnic bar association is open to "all persons of Czech, Moravian, Ruthenian, Silesian or Slovak ancestry" (the main ethnic groups in the original Czechoslovak Republice) enrolled in an area law firm.

You can get more information at the Bohemian Lawyers Association Web Site.
