The UALR William H. Bowen School of Law will honor alumni and faculty at its sixth annual Scholarship Luncheon on Wednesday, Oct. 29, from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Doubletree Hotel in Little Rock.

Danyelle J. Walker, a private attorney who graduated from the Bowen School of Law in 1995, is this year’s alumni honoree. She was appointed special justice on the Arkansas Supreme Court by Gov. Mike Beebe and serves on the court’s Professional Conduct Committee.

She serves on several volunteer boards including Center for Arkansas Legal Services, Our House and the American Heart Association’s Central Arkansas chapter.

Walker was awarded the Arkansas Bar Association’s Equal Justice Distinguished Service Award and the Arkansas Pro Bono Partnership Attorney of the Year award in 2008. She was voted VOCALS (Volunteer Organization for Center for Arkansas Legal Services) 2012 Attorney of the Year and was featured as one of Little Rock Family magazine’s 2012 “Mothers on the Move.”

Professor Lynn Foster, who came to the Bowen School of Law in 1986, is the faculty honoree. She currently teaches property, decedents’ estates and trusts, and land use.

She is the editor-in-chief of both the semi-annual Arkansas Real Estate Review and the annual Arkansas Probate and Trust Law Review, publications of the Arkansas Bar Association.

She was recently elected an Academic Fellow of the American College of Trust and Estate Counsel, a national organization of attorneys who are elected by demonstrating the highest level of integrity, commitment to the profession, competence and experience as trust and estate counselors.

Foster is the recipient of two Faculty Excellence awards for Service, the first Law School Outstanding Service award, and the Arkansas Bar Association Continuing Legal Education and Presidential Excellence Awards.
