Remembering Ruth Bader Ginsburg
Online-Only Law School Event
1111 East 60th Street, Chicago, Illinois 60637
Presenting student organizations: Law Women's Caucus Jewish Law Students Association
All are welcome.
We will open with a reading, a presentation on how Justice Ginsburg’s Judaism informed her conception of justice, and the Mourner’s Kaddish. We will then invite our attendees to unmute themselves and share what the late Justice’s life meant to them if they should so choose. After everyone wanting to speak has done so, I will close the service with a poem dedicated to the women of the Law School community.
If you want to prepare some remarks for the Service but would prefer to remain anonymous, one of us would be happy to read your words aloud on your behalf. Submit your remarks in this Google Form, which will not collect your UChicago email address, before 11:59 PM Central on Wednesday, Oct. 28.
And if you want to share what the late Justice’s life meant to you without reading those words at the Service at all, we welcome that as well. In that same Google Form, you can submit an entry (anonymously or not) for our Guest Book, which will be a Google Doc accessible only to those with UChicago email addresses. We will send out the completed Guest Book in early November.
If you have any questions or would like to request accommodations, please email me (falamo@uchicago.edu), Carol Kim (caroljkim@uchicago.edu), Darby Findley (dfindley@uchicago.edu), or Rachel Katzin (rkatzin@uchicago.edu).
