On May 19, as part of the Firm’s Urban Education Initiative, the New York office hosted a chess mini-tournament against 28 students (ages 13-18) who participate in the “Chess-in-the-Schools” program. The students toured the office, networked with Simpson staff and attorneys, and won a resounding victory in the chess tournament. 17 Simpson Thacher volunteers participated in the event, which was coordinated by Litigation associate Dan Y. Shin, with assistance from Human Resources Generalist Melissa Ortiz. For more information about the “Chess-in-the-Schools” program, click here.
