Great advice from LASCO Board Member Humphrey Kweminyi!
Humphrey Kweminyi, a Kegler Brown Diversity Scholar in 2019, offers his advice to 1Ls applying for this year’s scholarship: “Preparation is key in everything in life, and more so in the legal profession. So, give yourself enough time so you do not have to rush to submit your application at the last minute. Take the time so you don’t show up for interviews without reviewing the website and learning a thing or two about the person who will be interviewing you. But above everything else – apply – because as they say, you miss all the shots you don’t take. We’d love to get a chance to talk to you.” First-year law students passionate about advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion can apply now for Kegler Brown’s 2025 Diversity Scholarship and be part of a firm that values and promotes diversity: https://bit.ly/4em887X And RSVP for our?Diversity Reception on?Thursday, November 7, here: https://bit.ly/3N42Hi7 #LawStudents #DiversityScholarship #DEI

In honor of National Homelessness Awareness Month, we’d like you to meet Jesse Moses, Senior Staff Attorney in our New Philadelphia office and Board Member of Friends of the Homeless of Tuscarawas County! As a FOTH board member since 2020, Jesse has helped to advance efforts to replace the area’s only shelter, an aging building which could no longer meet the needs of the community. Thanks to their advocacy, FOTH is breaking ground on a new multi-million-dollar facility this year. #NationalHomelessnessAwarenessMonth #NHAM
