Symposium

The Women’s Rights Law Reporter hosted our Fall Symposium on December 2, 2021 from 3 pm to 5 pm in conjunction with the renaming of 15 Washington Street in Ruth Bader Ginsberg’s Honor. The panel examined both Justice GInsburg’s impact on feminism in the law while also looking at the modern feminist legal issues of 2021. Professor Kim graciously agreed to moderate and our first panelist was Professor Jhuma Sen.  The symposium also featured opening remarks by Professor Jane Ginsburg, the late justice’s daughter. 

This symposium was planned as a mostly in person event, with a live stream option for those who wished to remain at home/ could not travel to Newark. Rutgers Law School has long played a leadership role in diversity and inclusion, as well as social justice. We were proud to host a variety of experts, from within and outside our New Jersey community, to host engaging and nuanced conversations about these topics.
