Paula Monopoli ’76

In her keynote speech during the Northampton School for Girls centennial celebration in June, Trustee Paula Monopoli ’76 gave a master class that wove together feminist legal history, the suffrage movement, and the founding of NSFG. As the Sol & Carlyn Hubert Professor of Law at the University of Maryland, Monopoli is an internationally recognized legal scholar who has written widely on gender and constitutional design. She has also done much to promote gender equality in the legal profession and academia, including founding Maryland Carey Law’s groundbreaking Women, Leadership, and Equality program. This summer, Monopoli was also recognized with the University of Maryland, Baltimore’s Distinguished University Professor award, the institution’s highest faculty appointment.
