The @ACHSWashDC Board of Directors was treated this morning when the national record-breaking women’s & men’s @ACHSTrackField relay teams & @CoachBakare stopped by our meeting. So proud of these amazing student-athletes with low times and high GPAs! #proudalum#proudboardchair
Always good to come home! Congratulations @achswashdc Carroll Lions on the thrilling and close conference victory at Homecoming 2023. Was overjoyed to reunite with some of my “mighty class of ‘90”classmates in the stands! #SayGreen#proudalum#proudboardchair
Visiting the @WhiteHouse never gets old! Honored to serve on the Board of Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law during the 60th anniversary of its founding at Pres. Kennedy’s request. Thank you Pres. @JoeBiden for hosting us. The need for @LawyersComm leadership endures.
The final day of orientation week gave 1Ls the opportunity to explore DC with faculty & staff! @DeanFairfaxEsq introduced them to historic @benschilibowl which recently celebrated its 65th year. Co-founder Virginia Ali was present, immersing the students in DC history & culture!
The world has lost a drum major for justice, legal giant, and extraordinary human being. I have lost a dear mentor and friend. I pray for comfort and strength for Pam and the Ogletree family. More later, but here is a tribute to Tree I wrote 17 years ago. https://t.co/Nx5MCFQqRV
The HLS community mourns the passing of Charles Ogletree '78, a tireless advocate for civil rights, equality, human dignity and social justice, and a long-serving faculty member who made a monumental impact on Harvard Law School. We send our condolences to his family and friends.
