Sarah Crowley JD’22 Tulane University Law School New Orleans, LA Segal Roitman, LLP Boston, MA Sarah was raised in a union family from Buffalo, NY, and is committed to workers’ rights. She believes many of the challenges facing our country can be met by rebuilding union power. For the last year, Sarah interned with a plaintiff-side employment firm in New Orleans, which deepened her understanding of how dire working conditions are for many across all industries. The pandemic exacerbated already uneven employment relationships. This experience has also shown her the limits of enforcing individual employee rights and the need for strong, affirmative, pro-worker legal reforms. As an aspiring labor lawyer, Sarah hopes to be part of a broad movement to rebuild labor power in the United States while also fighting for a political system in which basic human rights are not tied to economic productivity.

After graduating from the University of Southern California, he worked for IBM as a product manager in Austin, TX, before enrolling in law school. This decision was driven by his strong desire to help the Black community and stand up for exploited groups of people, particularly in Sports & Entertainment. Schuyler hopes his legal work will reverse Black athletes’ cycle of amassing fortunes only to lose them later. His ultimate goal is to be general counsel at a sports agency, with a team, or players association. There he will advocate for diversity, equity, and inclusion. Schuyler served as president of the 2020-21 Tulane Black Law Students Association and speaker chair of the Sports Law Society.
