    Sparta — Kathryn Lewis of Sparta, a student of Seton Hall University School of Law, received the Distinguished Scholar Award. The distinction was based upon her prior academic performance, outstanding LSAT score, and personal character. Lewis received a bachelor of arts degree from Pennsylvania State University and a master of arts degree from Hunter College of the City University of New York. The only private law school in New Jersey, Seton Hall University School of Law was founded in 1951, and is located in the city of Newark. The school offers both day and evening programs leading to degrees in juris doctor (J.D.), master of laws (L.L.M.) and master of science in jurisprudence (M.S.J.). Seton Hall University has been a crucible for leadership for nearly 150 years, combining the resources of a large university with the personal attention of a small liberal arts college. Its suburban campus is only 14 miles by train, bus or car to New York City, with the wealth of employment, internship, cultural and entertainment opportunities the city offers. Ranked by U.S. News & World Report as one of the top 125 universities in the country, the Catholic university embraces students of all races and religions.
