scholarship
georgia with georgia tech's leadership. "i had a voicemail
from the admissions office saying they had 'exciting news'
and to call them back. i called and they told me that i had
been selected for a brand new scholarship, and i was at a
loss for words. they put me in contact with mrs. millwood
and the attorneys at Nelson Mullins, and the more i learned
about mr. millwood and the scholarship, the more i was
incredibly honored and humbled."
and friends for mr. millwood's legacy, and i am proud that
i have the opportunity to help perpetuate it." after law
school, george wants to return to atlanta and litigate. "the
millwood scholarship has given me the chance to focus
on studying so that i can take what i have learned, inside
and outside the classroom, and apply it while spreading mr.
millwood's commitments to collegiality and character in my
own practice."
Halfway through George's first year, that feeling has not worn
off. "The financial support is a great thing, but interacting
with the benefactors of the scholarship and those who knew
mr. millwood has been an even greater blessing. i have
found that there is a great deal of respect among colleagues
