Appleton, Brickey and Tokarz were the first three tenured professors at Washington University’s School of Law. Also honored were law school alumnae who graduated 50 or more years ago. The celebration was a Sesquicentennial event focusing on “Historic Women in Legal Education: A Celebration in Honor of the First Women at Washington University.” WUSTL’s School of Law is believed to be the first in the nation to admit women students.
