September 9, 1993 UNC names its law library the Kathrine R. Everett Law Library At a rededication on September 9, two days before the 100th anniversary of her birth, the law school named its library for Kathrine R. Everett, a 1920 graduate whom the Daily Tar Heel described as the first woman to argue and win a case before the N.C. Supreme Court. Her bequest of about $2 million, which Dean Judith Wegner called the largest gift in the school's history, endows a professorship and the library. People: Kathrine R. Everett Place: Kathrine R.
