Report: Former KU professor potential Supreme Court choice

Some media reports have cited for Kansas University professor Christine Arguello as a potential nominee for the U.S. Supreme Court.

President Barack Obama is looking for someone to replace the retiring David Souter.

Arguello, a U.S. district judge in Colorado, has received a call from people “in direct contact with the White House,” according to an article in the Denver Post.

She was on the KU School of Law faculty from 1991 to 1999, and received a Kemper Award for excellence in teaching in 1996. She received her law degree in 1980 from Harvard Law School.
