Death Row Inmate Earns College Degree Plainfield,VT—By corresponding with a small college in the Vermont hills from his Pennsylvania prison cell, death row inmate Mumia Abu-Jamal received his Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology on January 21. r "This day has been long in coming, several decades long, in fact," Abu-Jamal said in a statement read by his son Jamal, who accepted the degree. Abu-Jamal, a former journalist and Black Panther, has been sitting on death row since 1982 for the shooting death of Philadelphia police officer Daniel Faulkner. He was scheduled to die by lethal injection last August but was granted an. indefinite stay of execution. The inmate has received much- publicized support from groups such as Academics for Mumia Abu-Jamal, a coalition of professors who raised more than $1,000 toward his tuition costs. A former student at Goddard College near Montpelier between 1978 and 1980, Abu-Jamal was accepted last January into the school's off-campus program. Faculty adviser Margot MacLeod said he is an "incredibly diligent" student who wrote his senior study on "The Emergence of a Black Psychology." "He has a beautiful way of saying what needs to be said," she said. MacLeod told those present at the graduation ceremony what Abu- Jamal once told her when asked why he was finishing school. "I continue my education to keep my mind alive and to battle the omnipresent mental stagnation, or minddeath, of prison," he said in a note. MacLeod, who heads the off- campus study program, said her work with Abu-Jamal has been unusual but gratifying. For him "to be in a place of utter hopelessness, to have inner strength to aspire for something more," she said, "I find inspiring." Contributed by College Press Women Lawyers Still Fail to Make Dividends Chicago—Although more women are becoming lawyers, fewer than expected are reaching the upper echelon of the profession, according to an American Bar Association report released in January. Women make up 23 percent of the legal profession, a number that might hit 40 percent by 2010, according to the ABA's Commission on Women in the Profession. Still, only about 1 in 10 women lawyers is a partner in a firm, a number that has remained constant for over 10 years, according to the report. "Clearly there is some artificial reason why more women are not partners," Commission Chair Laurel Bellows said. "Barriers persist." In the nation's top firms, We than a dozen women serve as rnanag ing partner, which is the equtvalen of being CEO, Bellows said. A study of Colorado lawyer^ found that men with similar &$* ences are promoted more and e 10 percent higher salary. - Female college students co ering law school should not be discouraged, Bellows said, bee "women have the ability to cnan* the face of the profession." The commission plans w release a study of women in la school next month. Contributed by College Press
