- Stanford law students shouted down a federal judge during his scheduled Thursday talk as administrators stood by, with one stepping in to say his speech “denies the humanity of people.”
- Prior to the lunchtime talk by Fifth Circuit Judge Kyle Duncan, titled “The Fifth Circuit in Conversation with the Supreme Court: Covid, Guns, and Twitter,” Stanford Law School Associate Dean for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Tirien Steinbach sent an email to students affirming their right to protest the event, according to a screenshot obtained by Ed Whelan, a senior fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center.
- At the talk, she said she was “uncomfortable” with the event because it was “tearing at the fabric of this community that I care about and I’m here to support.”
