I met Susan in 2008 when I first began teaching.  She quickly became my mentor, as well as a wonderful friend and collaborator.  For a period of time, we even shared (with Alicia Plerhoples) a client that all three of our clinics served.  

The last time I saw Susan was at last year's transactional clinic conference when we presented together on the book that she had co-edited on impact investing.   While she was serious about her work as a teacher and scholar and very intentional about her impact in the world, she also was ready to laugh.  I will long remember how much we laughed and teased each other. That was part of the joy of knowing her. 

Her legacy will live on through all those she touched and mentored and taught.  I am proud to call myself one of her students.

I met Susan in 2010 when I started as a clinical teaching fellow at Fordham. Her scholarship on CED and clinical teaching was foundational for me. I was thrilled to meet her in those early years, even interviewing with her for a position I ultimately didn't get, but was grateful to have had that time to connect one-on-one with her. Susan was generous with her knowledge and time, and she showed up and was a mentor for me and others. The CED teaching and work so many of us do is because of her.  Thank you, Susan. Eternally grateful.
