14th Annual Awards Banquet

On October 19th, 2018, LaLSA continued a remarkable tradition of Latinx culture with our 14th Annual Awards Banquet hosted at the Princeton Club of New York.

October 24, 2018

We celebrated an elegant evening with our members and more than one hundred other attendees, including our honorees, judges, clerks, senior associates, partners, and notable faculty.

This year, we recognized Eduardo Gallardo ('99), Partner at Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher, and The Honorable Jenny Rivera ('93), Associate Judge of the New York Court of Appeals with our Distinguished Alumni Awards. We presented our Rising Star Award to Adriana Garcia (’12), Policy Advisor for the NYC Mayor's Office of Immigrant Affairs.

After a night of cocktails, dinner, and inspiring remarks from our honorees and Yadira Ramos-Herbert, Dean of Students, we headed over to our after party hosted at Solas! We are very grateful to all the LaLSA members, especially our Banquet Chairs, Maria Acosta ('20) and Ceci Plaza ('20), sponsors, faculty, and alumni for making this evening possible. Check out the rest of our amazing pictures taken by our own Chevaun Samuels ('20) on our Facebook photo album.
