The Women's Law Association will begin today a week-long series of lectures and panel discussions on the roles of women in law and politics to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the graduation of the first women from the Law School.
The association has invited all Law School alumnae to return to Cambridge to take part in the series. The speakers in the series include State Rep. Elaine Noble and Ruth Bader Ginsburg, counsel to the Women's Rights Project of the American Civil Liberties Union.
Over the past 25 years, the percentage of women in the graduating class of the Law School has increased from 2 per cent in 1953 to 5 per cent in 1969 and 30 per cent in this year's class.
