NOV. 7, 2007 - - Members of the Charleston School of Law community will hold a memorial service 5 p.m. Thursday at the school for Angela Nussbaum, a third-year student who died Tuesday.

SCHOLARSHIP CREATED Founders of the Charleston School of Law have started a memorial scholarship fund in honor of Angela Nussbaum. If you would like to contribute, please send a donation made out to the "Charleston School of Law Foundation" (click here for contact details). Please indicate on your check that the memorial is for the Angela Nussbaum Scholarship Fund

The service will be held in The Barrister area of the law school's campus at 81 Mary Street in Charleston.

If you would like to give something to Nussbaum's family, items will be collected at the service by members of the Federal Courts Law Review, the journal for which Nussbaum served as editor-in-chief. Among items suggested are food, ready-made meals, paper products, cards and flowers. Perishable products will be put into coolers and taken Friday to the family in Columbia.

Members of the FCLR staff also are assembling a memory book to give to the family. It will include letters and pictures from her classmates and faculty. You are encouraged to contribute your memories, condolences, pictures and other remembrances at a desk in the Barrister.

"Angela was a model law student who touched many of our lives," said friend and colleague Jordan Teich. "She gave her time unsparingly as a member of both the Federal Courts Law Review and the CSOL Moot Court Board. Her dedication to her schoolwork, extracurricular activities and friends was exemplary and she will not soon be forgotten. She will be missed dearly."
