At Brooklyn Law School, Simson, who graduates in June 2009, was on the executive board of the Brooklyn Journal of International Law, serving as executive articles editor, and she was a member of the Moot Court Honors Society’s appellate advocacy division. This spring, she coached the Law & Economics Moot Court team, which won second place and best brief in the Henry G. Manne Moot Court Competition for Law & Economics at George Mason Law School.
