A graduate of Cornell with a bachelor's degree in chemistry, Reno was the nation's first female U.S. attorney general. She served in that capacity for almost eight years during the Clinton administration, the longest term served by a U.S. attorney general since before the Civil War. In 2001 Reno returned to Cornell to deliver the senior convocation speech during commencement activities.
