DUKE LAW — Duke Law alumni have boosted their support for public interest fellowships, enabling more students and recent graduates to pursue highly competitive but low-paying or unpaid positions in areas such as public defense, indigent civil legal services, disability rights, housing, labor relations, international human rights, and civil work at government agencies. In summer 2021, nine 1L and 2L students were inaugural recipients of Alexandra D. Korry ’86 Civil Rights Fellowships, established by Korry’s husband Robin Panovka ’86 and their daughters, to honor her extensive pro bono civil rights work that included helping end juvenile solitary confinement in New York. Korry, a partner at Sullivan & Cromwell, died in September 2020. The Korry Fellowships join other competitive summer fellowships made possible through generous alumni endowments to Duke Law, including the Carroll & Simon Fellowship, the Steckley-Weitzel Fellowship, the Burdman Fellowship, the Everett Fellowship, the Mansfield Fellowship, and the Zipp Family Fellowship. A total of 21 students received one of these endowed fellowships in 2021.
