Dear Linda,

March is Women's History Month and what better way to celebrate than to
learn about some inspirational Oklahoma women!  Throughout the month we
will be highlighting some of them and their stories. We begin with Ada
Lois Sipuel Fisher in celebration of this year marking the 60th
anniversary of her graduation from Oklahoma's College of Law.   

Ada Lois Sipuel Fisher      

 Ada
Fisher<http://ih.constantcontact.com/fs045/1103690441328/img/36.jpg> 

Ada Lois Sipuel Fisher applied for admission to the University of
Oklahoma College of Law in 1946.  After being rejected for admittance on
the basis of race, Fisher agreed to be the subject of a lawsuit that
eventually was settled by the U.S. Supreme Court. Three years later,
Fisher became the first black student admitted to the University of
Oklahoma College of Law. This landmark case paved the way for Brown v
Board of Education. Her courage has inspired women of all races and
backgrounds to pursue their dreams. 

In 1952, she graduated from the College of Law, and in 1992, Gov. David
Walters appointed her to serve on the Board of Regents for the
University of Oklahoma, a true full circle moment.
