Description
This year, as we mark 50 years of Cardozo, we are honoring the community members—past and present—who have dared to make a difference in the legal world. Throughout the year, we will celebrate the faculty, staff, and alumni who have shaped Cardozo across five decades.
Today, we recognize Hon. Tanya R. Kennedy, who dares to stand for justice through her long and distinguished career on the bench, from Criminal and Civil Courts to her current role as Associate Justice of the Appellate Division, First Department.
A proud Cardozo alumna, adjunct educator, and leader in the legal community, Justice Kennedy’s commitment to fairness, mentorship, and the rule of law reflects the very best of what it means to stand for justice. Thank you for your service on the Cardozo Board and for championing excellence in our community!
