Cardozo Cup Entries and 2025 Winner!
Each year, I challenge students to create original works of art commemorating the jurisprudence of Benjamin Cardozo. This year’s entries into the Cardozo Cup competition included:
This image of a Cardozo-like figure pouring ranch dressing on a pizza. I can’t imagine why students would think Judge Cardozo capable of such a sacrilege.
Further encapulsating the course’s themes, the students supplemented their entry with a poem:
Justice Cardozo, so grand,
Held ranch and his pizza in hand.
He dipped with a grin,
Declared it no sin—
“Equity favors what’s bland!”
A candle and lapel pin
An engraving, and an image of Judge Cardozo as a cat, Catdozo:
And finally, the winning entry: a box that will correct you if you think that we should not listen to Judge Cardozo
Thanks to all for your participation and congratulations to the winner, Sean Robinson, pictured here accepting the Cardozo Cup from Dean Paula Dalley.
