Pauli’s many, many achievements include:
- graduating first in class at Howard Law School (but being denied the “automatic” admission into the Harvard grad law degree program due to gender)
- being the first African American to receive a Doctor of Juridical Science degree from Yale Law School

- penning a 1950 legal tome, States' Laws on Race and Color,” that the great Thurgood Marshall deemed “the bible” of the civil rights movement,

- co-founding the National Organization for Women in 1966,

- co-authoring a brief in the landmark 1971 SCOTUS case on gender discrimination Reed v. Reed, with future SCOTUS member Ruth Bader Ginsburg,

- serving in faculty or administrative positions at the Ghana School of Law, Benedict College, and Brandeis University,

- becoming an Episcopal priest in 1977 the first year women were allowed to be ordained,

- publishing many books of poetry, and becoming venerated as a Saint of the Episcopal Church in 2012. St. Pauli (not necessarily girl)!!
