This past Tuesday, September 8th, the Croft Institute was thrilled to host Justice Kulendi for a luncheon as well as a guest speaker for our Introduction to International Law class. Justice Kulendi spoke with the students about his time serving on the Ghanaian Supreme Court, his personal education in both Ghana and the U.S., and his advice for our students throughout the rest of their education and as they pursue their careers. We immensely thank Justice Kulendi for his time spent at the Croft Institute and the knowledge he shared with us. by @croftinstituteum
