From Truman to Trump and Reagan to Obama, Baylor and Waco have played host to some of the nation’s most powerful political figures. Governors, justices and presidents alike have stepped into the green and gold spotlight — each leaving a mark on campus history.

Sandra Day O’Connor regaled a Baylor audience Monday with the story of her struggle to succeed as a woman in a male-dominated law field, highlighting how the profession has shifted since her selection as the first female U.S. Supreme Court justice.

Baylor will have the honor of welcoming Justice Sandra Day O’Connor to campus as a guest for President Ken Starr’s OnTopic lecture series next week.

Former Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor will visit campus April 30 as part of Baylor President Ken Starr’s “On Topic” series. The event will be at 1 p.m. in Waco Hall.
