Meeting a Justice—Birmingham-Southern College junior Corrie Clarkson (second from left) from Springville takes part in an experience of a lifetime by meeting U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia during his recent unannounced visit to Fribourg University in Fribourg, Switzerland. Clarkson, a German major at BSC, is spending the academic year studying abroad at the University of Fribourg through an exchange program with the American College Program. Scalia, in Zurich, Switzerland, for a meeting, paid a special visit to Fribourg to present a short lecture on the U.S. Constitution. He attended Fribourg University as an undergraduate exchange student from Georgetown University about 50 years ago. Pictured here from left to right are Kylee Blatchford, an exchange student from Nebraska; Clarkson; Scalia; and Andrej Lushnycky, director of the American College Program at Fribourg University.
