Barnard College

Name: Camille Van Kote

PLEN Program: Women, Law & Public Policy, 2011

Major: Political Science

Favorite PLEN Moment: Visiting Capitol Hill and the Supreme Court where Supreme Court Justice clerks talked to our group about their career paths.  While conversing with them, we were honored with the presence of Justice Ginsberg who spoke with us for a few minutes. This was an incredible moment to see one of the most influential women in our society which definitely inspired me to pursue my legal aspirations.

Why I’m a PLEN Ambassador: Because I believe networking and connecting would help increase women’s presence in the legal and political fields. Women need the solidarity and partnership which can be found in the PLEN Program.  Thanks to PLEN, we can have a stronger voice to impact social progress and change.
