Announcements : WALLACE L. DUNCAN MEMORAL SCHOLARSHIP ESTABLISHED AT WCL

Wednesday, January 07, 2009 - 06:37 PM EST
DWGP has established a scholarship fund at the Washington College of Law at American University to honor the memory of Wallace L. Duncan ("Walley"), founder and past-president of the law firm.  Walley was widely recognized as an authority in the field of energy regulation because of his zealous advocacy for consumer-owned utilities across the country over the course of his 47 years of legal practice. 

Because of Walley's strong connection to his alma mater, DWGP chose to honor him by establishing the Wallace L. Duncan Memorial Scholarship at the American University Washington College of Law.  The scholarship is a particularly fitting tribute because it will be presented annually to a student on the Administrative Law Review, the preeminent legal publication addressing administrative law and regulatory practice issues.

Walley's family and colleagues take comfort in knowing that his legacy will live on by recognizing student achievement in a field in which Walley passionately practiced and contributed so much. 

Anyone wishing to make a contribution (by check or credit card) to the scholarship fund can do so by making donations payable to "The Washington College of Law" and indicate that the gift is made in support of the "Wallace L. Duncan Memorial Scholarship."   Inquiries regarding donations or the scholarship can be made to:
