Sandra Day O’Connor, the first woman to serve as a justice on the U.S. Supreme Court, revealed this week that she has been diagnosed with dementia and is withdrawing from the public spotlight.
University of Utah S.J. Quinney College of Law Professor RonNell Andersen Jones was interviewed by The New York Times about O’Connor’s announcement. Andersen Jones served as a law clerk for O’Connor and also team-taught an annual course about the U.S. Supreme Court with O’Connor at the University of Arizona.
