An alumna of Covenant College has been selected to clerk for Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas joining the ranks of approximately 36 law clerks who are chosen annually to serve with the Supreme Court.
Kathryn Kimball graduated from Covenant College in Lookout Mountain, Ga. in 2009 and her clerkship will run during the 2018 Supreme Court term, according to a release from the college.
“I’m deeply honored to have the opportunity to clerk for Justice Thomas, a man I respect as both a jurist and person,” Kimball said.
Kimball was a Maclellan Scholar and student body president during her senior year and she graduated with highest honors with a bachelor of arts in economics. She then went on to receive her J. D. from the Fredric G. Levin College of Law in 2012 where she graduated first in her class.
She currently serves as a prosecutor in the Department of Justice in Washington D.C.
