To further our celebration of volunteerism this April, we continue to showcase the dedication of our board members. This week, we are excited to share insights from Terryl Brown who brings a unique perspective on the impact of community service. "I serve on several boards but the Municipal Credit Union Board is one that I am extremely passionate about. As a board member, I get to serve New York City’s dedicated public servants. I am able to utilize my business, legal, managerial, and board governance experience to ensure that our hardworking heroes have access to high-quality, low-cost banking services; and that the right safeguards are in place to protect their money."

In January, 14 students and professors from the Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University embarked on a profound interdisciplinary civil rights field study to Alabama alongside the Equal Justice Initiative, looking into history to understand its impact on the present and actively seek ways to eliminate injustice and inequality. They were joined by students, faculty and administrators from Pace’s Dyson College for the 4-day trip, which included visits to the Legacy Museum, National Memorial for Peace and Justice, the Freedom Rights Museum, Federal Courthouse and landmarks, traveling through 400 years of American history – from enslavement to racial terrorism, to codified segregation, to mass incarceration. “I am immensely grateful for the opportunity to have visited the various historical sites and landmarks that shed light on the struggles and triumphs of the civil rights movement,” said 2L Madison Lane ‘25. “Walking in the footsteps of those who fought diligently for justice and equality was a humbling and eye-opening experience. It deepened my understanding of the challenges faced by marginalized communities and the importance of continuing the fight for social justice.” READ THE STORY: https://brnw.ch/21wGPHB #HaubLawatPace #civilrights #equaljustice #EJI #enslavement #racialinjustice #justiceandequality #socialjustice #blackhistorymonth
