A plaque in Professors' Square on Glasgow University's Gilmorehill Campus marking the graduation of Madge Easton Anderson, the first woman to practice law in the UK. This followed the passing of the Sex Disqualification (Removal) Act in 1919 which allowed woman, for the first time, to become solicitors, barristers, chartered accountants and vets.
