Sam Lacy was awarded two fellowships, from the AnBryce Scholarship Program and the Furman Academic Scholars Program, which will cover full tuition and fees at NYU Law School. Sam plans to get his J.D. from NYU as part of his training in legal history. He will return to Penn to complete his dissertation, tentatively titled, "A Pious Punishment: White Southern Protestants and the Legality of Lynching in the Jim Crow South, 1877-1935."
