NUAMPS provided a streaming camera feed for overflow viewing in addition to technical support at this year’s Howard J. Trienens Visiting Judicial Scholar Program, where Northwestern invited Associate Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor to speak. She answered questions with topics ranging from her one law school regret to sexism in U.S. courtrooms (and its broader implications). Even among more serious topics she wielded enough wit to provoke laughter from the entire room.
Thorne Auditorium was completely filled – over 700 seats – and the additional classroom used for overflow attendees was at capacity as well.
