A fond farewell to teaching rarely brings kudos from the nation's highest court. But Frank Askin, though he's leaving the Rutgers Law classroom after half a century, is no retiring professor. So among the tributes as he leaves teaching: a warm public sendoff from old friend and colleague Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
On this week's edition of Due Process: A video profile and studio conversation with the dean of New Jersey's civil rights bar and long-serving general counsel of the national ACLU.
Frank's passion for fairness - and his lengthy FBI file, earned during years of fighting for racial justice - came long before he thought he'd be a lawyer. Still he's leaving his mark on New Jersey law, on how law is taught throughout the country, and on 50 years of students he inspired.
