Kennedy at Duke


Richard Nixon's alma mater gets some Supreme Court lovin'. From the Duke Law School communications office:

Supreme Court Justice Anthony M. Kennedy will speak at Duke Law School at 9:30 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 8, during a dedication ceremony celebrating the school’s recent renovation and expansion project.

The complete schedule of events, as well as links to directions and parking information, can be found at http://www.law.duke.edu/about/building/dedicationschedule. RSVPs should be directed to events@law.duke.edu by Monday, Nov. 3.

But here's a quick trivia question: who was the first Duke Law grad to be tapped for a coveted Supreme Court clerkship? The answer, according to a Wikipedia site http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_law_clerks_of_the_Supreme_Court_of_the_United_Stateson the subject: Mr. Kenneth Starr. The name rings a bell...
