Conner Robinson, ’23, has been appointed a US Supreme Court Fellow for the 2026-27 Term. 

The Supreme Court Fellows Commission selects four highly talented individuals to work each year for one of four federal judiciary bodies—the US Supreme Court, the Administrative Office of the US Courts, the Federal Judicial Center, and the US Sentencing Commission.

Robinson has been designated as the Fellow for the US Supreme Court, where he will serve in the Office of the Counselor to the Chief Justice. The fellowship starts in September and lasts for one year.

Robinson is currently serving as a clerk for Judge Julie A. Robinson of the US District Court for the District of Kansas. He was previously in private practice.

Before graduating from the Law School with Pro Bono Honors in 2023, Robinson earned a BA in political science from Kansas State University.

The other three 2026-27 Fellows are: Micayla Bitz (who is assigned to the US Sentencing Commission), Connor Frayly (who is assigned to the Administrative Office of the US Courts), and Owen B. Smitherman (who is assigned to the Federal Judicial Center).
