A U.S. Senate committee March 20 began hearings on the U.S. Supreme Court nomination of Neil Gorsuch, a visiting law professor at ��ֱ�� Boulder.

The president nominated Gorsuch, whose parents were both 1964 graduates of ��ֱ�� Law, in January.

Gorsuch, a federal appeals court judge based in Denver, has taught ethics and antitrust law at ��ֱ�� Law since 2008. He lives in Boulder County.

The Senate Judiciary Committee opened its hearing late Monday morning. The committee plans to vote on the Gorsuch nomination no later than April 3. A vote of the full senate would follow.

Two ��ֱ�� Boulder alumni have served on the U.S. Supreme Court: Byron White (Econ’38) and Wiley Rutledge (Law’22).

Byron R. White (Econ’38) came to notice for his athletic prowess, then proved himself a star in almost everything else.

Perhaps ��ֱ�� Boulder’s most celebrated alumnus, the football hero dubbed “Whizzer White” graduated first in his class, won a Rhodes Scholarship, served as a U.S. Naval officer, went to Yale Law School and, at age 44, became one of the youngest ever U.S. Supreme Court justices.

A ��ֱ�� native, White also ranks among the longest-serving justices — 31 years.

In this photograph, one in a series of ��ֱ�� football players, he was still a teenager.

White died in 2002, in Denver. He would have turned 100 this June.
