He garnered a unique perspective of social interactions while having served as Student Body President in High School, Undergraduate and Law Schools. At Lumberton High School (Lumberton, NC), Williams was elected Student Body President in the first election conducted after the mandatory consolidation of the tri-racial segregated school systems. As Student Body President at the University of NC in Chapel Hill, among other achievements, he initiated mass transit on campus, implemented a new, streamlined Campus Governing Council and sponsored a well acclaimed "Colloquium On Individual Rights and Liberties" which included such speakers as: Former Presidential Candidate Eugene McCarthy, Congressman Hugh Scott, Reverend Ralph Abernathy, Professor Angela Davis, ERA Proponent Martha Griffiths, Civil Rights Attorney William Kuntsler and a host of other luminaries. During his successful term as the first minority Student Body President at the University of Minnesota Law School, Williams found the time to lead his team to become Champion of the Law School Basketball league and won as a member on the university wide Champion Wrestling team. The Author has served as an Attorney for 35 years and has spearheaded numerous productive community economic development projects.view less
