The DuPage Bar Foundation "promotes the study of law" with its annual scholarship program, including the William J. Bauer Scholarship which has been awarded each year since the DBF first developed the program when the Courthouse Annex was named in Judge Bauer's honor in 2010. Our own Melissa Piwowar,who has been a member of the DuPage County Bar Association for almost 20 years, was a uniquely qualified candidate for this award. She is one of the only DCBA members ever to be granted a Directors Award three times over the course of her career and she was the founding chair of the Public Interest Law Initiative's Committee in the 18th Judicial Circuit. An established connection with the DuPage County legal community? As David Clark, the DBF representative who presented her with this recognition said, she certainly "checked that box. With this being such a marvelous honor to celebrate and with our good friend, Robert E. Potter III doing all the photography at this event for the DuPage Bar -- and with this being the first time we'd gotten out for an event since the 2020 Pandemic, this is one we wanted to remember!
