  • A Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) dean who was recently placed on leave after berating a federal judge during a campus event published an opinion article in the Wall Street Journal on Thursday explaining her motives.
  • Stanford Law School Associate Dean for DEI Tirien Steinbach asked Federal Judge Kyle Duncan to consider whether the “juice was worth the squeeze” after he asked for an administrator to quiet a room of heckling students during his March 9 speech on COVID-19, guns and Twitter.
  • Steinbach, who came under fire for appearing to justify the hecklers’ behavior, defended her actions in the op-ed by making the argument that she was explaining the protester’s position to “de-escalate” the situation.
