(July 10) – St. Mary’s University School of Law recently announced that two El Paso alumni have donated $1 million to endow the second year of the Law Success Program, the law school’s legal skills curriculum.
The program will be renamed the Bramblett Second-Year Success Program after the donors – the Honorable Mary Anne Bramblett and Brud John Bramblett. Judge Bramblett was the first woman elected to a district court in El Paso County and served on the 41st District Court from 1998 until retiring in 2012.
The curriculum provides law students with three years of personalized instruction and testing on the legal skills that form the basis of law school exams, the bar exam and their legal careers.
“Mary Anne and Coll Bramblett have set a precedent for future generations of St. Mary’s lawyers – both through their careers and their continued commitment to the school,” Thomas Mengler, president of St. Mary’s University, said in a statement.
“This outstanding donation to the groundbreaking Law Success Program will expand the holistic approach to legal education designed by Dean Stephen Sheppard and his faculty in the School of Law.”
