The University of Arkansas School of Law Student Bar Association recently hosted a golf scramble to benefit the Arkansas Judges and Lawyers Assistance Program, an organization that provides mental health and substance abuse services to Arkansas’ judges, lawyers, and their family members. The scramble, supported by six area law firms, raised $2,760 to support the assistance program.

With the success of this event, the Student Bar Association has planned another scramble to be held on Sept. 16. For more information or to register for the scramble, email Student Bar Association president Jennifer Corbin at j.l.corbin333@gmail.com.
