Following Justice Sonia Sotomayor's discussion with University of Chicago Law School students on her career and legal values, students shared their opinions on and experiences of the event.

President Barack Obama appointed Sotomayor to the Supreme Court in 2009. She is the Supreme Court's 111th justice, third woman, and first Hispanic justice.

The program included an hour of questions from law students. Sotomayor emphasized the deep respect that the Supreme Court justices maintain for each other, even when they take differing views on a case. She also advised students never to take on more work than they can accomplish well.
