Lauren Beach Named 2009 Point Scholar

JDP student Lauren Beach, JD, PhD candidate in Molecular, Cellular, Developmental Biology & Genetics was named a 2009 Point Scholar. Lauren is one of only 11 undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate recipients nationwide who were chosen for Point Scholarships from among nearly 2,500 applicants.

Point scholarships—which cover tuition, books, living expenses, and more—are set up with individual institutions to meet the needs of students of merit in the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community. Recipient selection is a six-month process that involves an online application, submission of materials, a phone interview, and an in-person interview in San Francisco. Read More
