Work continues to progress on the 10,000-square-foot Damon J. Keith Center for Civil Rights at Wayne State University Law School. The expansion project is scheduled for completion in late summer with a grand opening planned for this fall, according to Kristin Copenhaver, director of Communications for WSU Law School. Named in honor of Judge Keith, a member of the U.S. Court of Appeals bench since 1977, the center will include an exhibit area, meeting and conference rooms, clinic space, and a 60-person lecture hall. It also will house an exhibit featuring Judge Keith’s life and work, focusing on his pivotal role in championing civil rights. The groundbreaking ceremony for the center was held last May. Eric Holder, attorney general of the United States, served as the keynote speaker.
