This was originally published in the Winter 2018-2019 Class Notes.

Roxana Alger Geffen’s (’99) latest work, Dissent Collars, was inspired by Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Ginsburg accessorizes her judicial robes with statement-making collars, including a famous “dissent collar” for occasions when she objects to Supreme Court decisions.
