Prof. Okediji Quoted in the New York Times About First Black Woman President of Harvard Law Review

Professor Ruth Okediji was quoted in the New York Times about the election of ImeIme Umana as president of the Harvard Law Review, for whom Prof. Okediji has become an important mentor. "I say to all my mentees: ‘You are not successful until you have brought the next woman up. It’s not success if it’s just you,'" said Prof. Okediji. "ImeIme has looked behind her. That’s evidence of leadership and integrity of spirit.”
