Justice Kagan, who went to Princeton, recently received Princeton’s Wilson Award, the university’s highest honor. In one of the best interviews I’ve seen of a current Justice, Princeton President Chris Eisgruber interviewed Justice Kagan. Toward the end, around 42.00, he asked which of her dissenting opinions was her “favorite,” and you can see that Justice Kagan remains as passionate about her dissenting views in Common Cause v. Rucho as she was when she wrote it.
Full disclosure: I was co-counsel to Common Cause in this case.
