Some Justices Still Haven’t Mastered E-Mail, Sotomayor Says
Justice Sonia Sotomayor admits she is a “dinosaur” when it comes to social networking, but she is apparently doing better than some of her Supreme Court colleagues.
Speaking at an appearance at Kansas State University, Sotomayor said several justices still haven’t mastered e-mail, the Associated Press reports. She didn’t name names.
Sotomayor drew laughter when she talked about the difficulties of trying to reach agreement with other justices, according to a report on the speech by KSN.com. “If you think that making decisions among nine people is easy,” Sotomayor said, “remember what you go through at home when you want to decide what movie to go to.”
She also spoke of the burden of working on a court where the decisions can’t be appealed.
Sotomayor offered some career advice to her student audience, according to the Kansas State Collegian. “Don’t typecast yourself,” she said. “Follow your passion, even if it’s not the norm.”
