A History-Making Guest

A&M-San Antonio welcomed Justice Sonia Sotomayor to campus as part of the 2025 Distinguished Lecture Series. The event was hosted by the University’s Cisneros Institute for Emerging Leaders, which serves as a transformative incubator for student leaders. As part of her visit, Sotomayor, the third woman and first Hispanic to serve on the Supreme Court, participated in a private lunch with student and University leaders, engaging with guests in an intimate setting. She also took part in a conversation moderated by Jenna Saucedo-Herrera, chief executive officer of greater:SATX, about her personal and professional journey, during which students in the audience were able to submit questions. Several notable community leaders attended the discussion, including Dr. Henry Cisneros, a former Texas A&M regent.
