Summary
This consolidated case out of New York considered two independent appeals, both of which concerned testamentary trusts that awarded scholarships exclusively to male students. The first, Matter of Wilson, involved a 1969 testamentary trust (the “Wilson Trust”), which directed that trust income be applied to “[defray] the education and other expenses of the first year at college of five (5) young men who shall have graduated from the Canastota High School … as may be certified by the Superintendent of Schools.
