McMath Woods P.A. Endows Governor Sid McMath Scholarship
Woods P.A., recently
contributed to the Governor Sid McMath Endowed Scholarship, which was
established in 1973 by Judge William J. Smith to honor Gov. McMath.
The 34th governor of
Arkansas, Gov. McMath was a decorated Marine serving in World War II as well as
one of the nation’s foremost trial attorneys. During his time as governor from 1949 to 1953, he championed
rural electrification,
highway and school construction, and the building of the University of Arkansas
for Medical
Sciences, among other causes.
He later represented thousands of injured people in precedent-setting
cases and mentored several generations of young attorneys.
“Gov. Sid McMath’s legacy will
continue to live on through scholarships provided by the Governor Sidney McMath
Endowed Scholarship,” said Wanda Hoover with The University of Arkansas’
William H. Bowen School of Law. “Through this endowment, Bowen students have
the opportunity to fulfill their dreams of becoming lawyers, and the generosity
of the McMath Firm will increase our ability to train young adults in the
practice of law.”
