At this year’s annual spring dinner, the Black, Latino, Asian Pacific American Law Alumni Association honored Ramsey Homsany ’00, general counsel of Dropbox, and Linda Gadsby ’92, vice president and deputy general counsel of Scholastic. “Encouraging lawyers with diverse backgrounds really matters,” said Homsany in accepting his award. “In my second year of law school, two brave women invited me to join them in starting up the Middle Eastern Law Student Association. And we did it. And this community was so supportive. I am so thankful for that. It taught me to build bridges. It reminded me how I could make a difference.”
