Harvard Prof Morton J. Horwitz

Had the honor of meeting renowned American Legal Historian, Harvard Prof Morton J. Horwitz, after his lecture of Brown v. Board of Education.
Debated Bakke and Grutter cases with Prof Horwitz, President Seligman, and Senior VP Sue Stewart after the lecture, what fun!
