Ruth Colker (born 1956)[1] is an American legal scholar who held the position of Distinguished Professor and Heck Faust Chair in Constitutional Law at the Ohio State University Moritz College of Law before her retirement in 2026. She cited Ohio State's implementation of Ohio Senate Bill 1, restricting diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives as her reason for retiring early.[2] Colker was awarded the 2009 Distinguished University Professor by the university.[3]
