Yale Law School professors cancel class as students protest Kavanaugh nomination

Several Yale Law School professors cancelled classes Monday to accommodate students who wanted to protest President Trump’s Supreme Court nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh, a Yale alum who was twice accused of decades-old misconduct on the eve of his confirmation vote.

As many as 20 Yale Law School faculty members canceled or rescheduled up to 31 classes for students to “protest both the nomination of Judge Kavanaugh, this school’s implicit endorsement of him, and our administration’s complicity in widespread sexual harassment in the legal profession,” according to emails obtained by Campus Reform, a campus watchdog group.

From Campus Reform:

One student tweeted that the school, Kavanaugh’s alma mater, is complicit in sexual harassment because the dean did not publicly oppose Kavanaugh’s nomination.

Congrats Yale Law School.  You have law school students who do not understand or embrace the concept of the presumption of innocence.  They have decided that Kavanaugh is guilty and that he must be punished.

These students are going so far as to besmirch the reputation of their own institution, saying that Yale supports sexual assault.

Students held signs reading “YLS is a Model of Complicity” and “Is there nothing more important to YLS than its proximity to power and prestige?”

Then why are these students going there?  Clearly they are not getting an education in the law or the basis of American’s judicial system.

Yale Law Professor Akhil Amar, who testified in support of Kavanaugh during his confirmation hearing, wrote in an op-ed on Monday that he agreed with his fellow faculty member’s sentiments.

“These accusations deserve the best and most professional investigation possible — even if that means a brief additional delay on the ultimate vote on Judge Kavanaugh, and even if that investigatory delay imperils his confirmation,” he said.

C’mon, imperiling his confirmation is the whole point of the Kafkaesque farce.  Don’t pretend otherwise.

One of the things that upsets me so much about this is the total lack of loyalty.

In my day, students would rally around an alumni like Kavanaugh.  The attitude would be “this school strives for the best and we stand by our distinguished alumni as someone who we believe is of such character as to not have done this unless proven otherwise.”

Now the attitude is “he’s guilty and our school is a rapist factory.”

The students may be of the snowflake generation, but the professors?  That’s the most horrifying.

Yale law students are falling over themselves to prove just how worthless an education from that school is.  Would you hire a lawyer to defend you if that lawyer assumes you are guilty because you are a white male?

Personally, if I were the Dean of Yale Law School, I’d fire every professor who canceled class and expel every student who protested.  Every single one of them has brought shame upon the institution, both implying Yale approved of or played a roll in sexual assault, and for so fundamentally misunderstanding the foundation principles of American jurisprudence.
