OUTLaw Alumni Reception

OUTLaw will continue their tradition of honoring distinguished alumni for their outstanding professional achievements and advocacy for the LGBTQIA+ community. The 2024 OUTLaw Alum of the Year Award will be presented to Shana Knizhnik ’15, public defender at The Legal Aid Society of NYC and co-author of Notorious R.B.G.: The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, in recognition of her exceptional contributions to the LGBTQIA+ community. A reception will immediately follow the award presentation. REGISTER

OUTLaw brings together NYU Law students, alumni, faculty, and staff who self-identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual (LGBTQIA+) and allies. OUTLaw sponsors educational events throughout the year, keeps the Law School community informed on legal issues impacting LGBTQIA+ rights, and raises the visibility of LGBTQIA+ people within the legal profession. OUTLaw advocates for inclusion of queer perspectives within the Law School and works in partnership with allies within the school and beyond to end discrimination in all its forms.
