Barrett's career is marked by historic firsts: she is the first Notre Dame Law School graduate on the Supreme Court, the fifth woman to serve, and the first justice in about 150 years confirmed without any minority-party votes. Her teaching excellence at Notre Dame earned her repeated faculty awards. Her judicial opinions have shaped major areas of constitutional law, and her 2025 book furthers public understanding of the Court.
