Otis Cochran

I was very sorry to read about Otis's passing in the Yale Law Reporter this month (January 2021). Otis was the leader of the Black students (and their allies) at the law school in their efforts to increase awareness of racial justice issues among the faculty and staff at the school. He had a superb sense of strategy -- and a great sense of humor as well! He was a good friend of mine in our law school days, and I was grateful for the opportunity to work with him in his efforts.
