On April 24, Black Law Students Association celebrated our graduating members at the Donning of the Kente Ceremony. We are incredibly proud of each of these graduates and grateful for the impact they have had on our organization and community throughout their time at Dickinson Law.

We especially want to recognize our graduating board members for their leadership and dedication to BLSA: Chloe Graham, President and former 1L Representative (2023–2024); Awa Ndiaye, Vice President; Katie Miller, Secretary; Charity Williams, Social Chair; and Alex Uzoho, 1L Coordinator. Your work has helped shape and strengthen our organization in countless ways.

We also celebrate Chinedu Chinedum, Elias Robinson, Jonathan Gray, Mabel Yeboah, Odile Jassey, and Seandy Nutakor as they begin this next chapter.

Thank you all for your leadership, mentorship, service, and contributions to the BLSA community. We wish each of you continued success and happiness in everything ahead.

A special thank you as well to our alumni speakers, Brea Jones, Leilani Brown, and Taylor Washington, for returning to celebrate with our graduates and share your experiences and encouragement with the next generation of Black attorneys.

BLSA had the opportunity to visit Cozen O’Connor’s Pittsburgh office for a firm trip and connect with attorneys across practice areas. The day concluded with a joint mixer alongside Pitt BLSA and Duquesne BLSA, creating space to build relationships across schools and share perspectives on the legal profession.

Thank you to Cozen O’Connor for hosting and to Pitt BLSA and Duquesne BLSA for a great evening of connection and community.
