NCBE is honored to announce the inauguration of the Diane F. Bosse Award for Excellence and Service in Bar Admissions. The award was established in memory of Diane F. Bosse, former chair of the New York Board of Law Examiners and NCBE’s Board of Trustees, who passed away suddenly on March 17, 2024. It is intended to recognize a state bar examiner or board member who emulates the ideals that Diane embodied—leadership, vision, integrity, and extraordinary service in bar admissions—with the aim of enshrining Diane’s legacy and commitment to service in our community and inspiring a new generation of bar examiners.
Read the In Memoriam section on Bosse in the Spring 2024 issue of The Bar Examiner.
Nominations for a current or former bar examiner were accepted through January 15, 2025. Final selection is expected by February 15, 2025, at which time the award recipient will be notified and invited to attend the NCBE Annual Bar Admissions Conference, May 1–4, 2025, in Seattle, Washington. The award recipient will be honored at a conference luncheon ceremony on Friday, May 2.
