Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor talks with college students at St. Francis
Sotomayor Says Not to Expect Radical Changes in Supreme Court Bench
More than 700 people packed into a gym at St. Francis College on Thursday to watch U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, who was at the school to talk about her life and answer pre-approved questions from students.
“Justice Sotomayor and Brooklyn Law grad, her law clerk, inspire our students and graduates,” Brooklyn Law School Dean Nicholas Allard told the Brooklyn Eagle following the talk. “They remind us that law and lawyers can make a difference and improve the world. They demonstrate that in America the legal profession and access to justice under law should be for everyone without regard to economic means, gender, race, ethnic heritage, belief or national origin.”
