“Juggling full-time law school while raising two daughters and working a job as a BCBA felt like a private journey, so I was so touched to learn that the faculty at QU Law saw the "whole me" throughout those years, and subsequently, chose me for this award. I am deeply grateful for the recognition. Ultimately, I would have never been able to do it without their support and the community at our school. After the bar, I am eagerly looking forward to working at Wiggin and Dana LLP in New Haven, CT as a first-year associate.”

– Dana White, on receiving the 2026 NAWL Outstanding Law Student Award for Quinnipiac University School of Law.
