The 2006 Roman L. Hruska Institute for the Administration of Justice lecture featuring Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg will air at 10 a.m. Oct. 2 and 4, and at 8:30 p.m. Oct. 4 on LNKTV Education (ALLO Channel 23, Charter/Spectrum Channel 1303 and Windstream Kinetic Channel 1080).
Ginsburg, who died Sept. 18 after a years-long battle with pancreatic cancer, visited the university on April 7, 2006 to deliver the Roman L. Hrkuska Institute for the Administration of Justice lecture. She also interacted directly with students in the College of Law and College of Journalism and Mass Communications.
One of the faculty selected to host Ginsburg for a face-to-face student discussion was Anna W. Shavers, Cline Williams Professor of Citizenship Law and associate dean for diversity and inclusion.
“That was a day I will never forget,” Shavers said. “The class was on gender issues, and to have RBG come in and give insight on the cases she was involved in and the law that she helped establish — work we were studying — was just a remarkable experience.”
