Brief Biographical Sketch:

Hey everyone! My name is Gabriel Vergara. I am a sophomore government major at Cornell. I love government, especially studying the Supreme Court and how it interprets the law. I find it even more interesting that different judges take different approaches to cases. I hope to convey these judicial ideologies simply so that everyone better understands the impact of the Supreme Court. In the future I hope to either go to graduate school and then teach at a university.
