Campus was a hive of activity this week with various high-profile speakers and events. There were five days of hearings by the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights—the first time the commission has held public hearings in the United States outside of its Washington, D.C., offices and at an American law school. There was an award ceremony and talk with renowned documentarian Ken Burns. The Innovation & Entrepreneurship Campus Kickoff took place, including talks by Justin Gold, founder of Justin’s, and 2018 New Venture Challenge champion, the Specdrums team. Also on campus were Charlie Kirk and Candace Owens of Turning Point USAAstronaut Scott Kelly and Puerto Rico Governor Ricardo Rosselló. Enjoy the week in photos!
