Program brings CT Supreme Court to Law School
The Connecticut Supreme Court visited the Law School on March 5 as part of its On Circuit program. The Court heard two oral arguments, State of Connecticut v. Sergio J. Correa and Gregory Johnson v. Superior Court. Established in 1986, the On Circuit program offers students the opportunity to hear real cases be presented before the Connecticut Supreme Court and is held at schools throughout the state. A lunch discussion for students with the justices followed. On Circuit was previously hosted by the Law School in 1990 and 2008.

Gerard C. and Bernice Latrobe Smith Professor of International Law Oona Hathaway ’97JD received several honors in April. Hathaway was elected a 2025 Guggenheim Fellow, one of 198 artists and scholars to be recognized this year across 53 fields. She was also elected to the 2025 class of the American Academy of Arts & Sciences as one of nearly 250 new members. And at the annual meeting of the American Society of International Law the same month, Hathaway was named the organization’s president-elect. At the Law School, Hathaway is the director of the Center for Global Legal Challenges.
Law Library gifted former dean’s papers
Sterling Professor Emeritus of Law Guido Calabresi ’53, ’58LLB, has donated his papers—a culmination of his remarkable career spanning more than 70 years—to the Lillian Goldman Law Library. “[Guido’s] papers will be sought after at the Law Library by legal scholars and researchers and draw attention to our rich and extensive historical legal collections,” said law librarian and professor of law Femi Cadmus. The collection will be available for research at the Law Library posthumously following several years of processing. “I hope that the collection and keeping of my papers will be only one of many from our fantastic faculty,” Calabresi said. Select items will be included in a broader exhibit featuring new acquisitions in 2026.
