Institute for Education Honors, Serenades Justice Ginsburg

Coach Kathy Kemper opened the program before Ginsburg was serenaded by mezzo-soprano Denyce Graves and introduced by former U.S. Solicitor General Theodore Olson. Ginsburg gave “a hearty welcome to my workplace,” before conducting a veritable history lesson as she discussed each of the chief justices whose portraits adorned the room.
