A legal scholar at Georgetown resigned rather than be fired following an investigation into a tweet he wrote about President Biden s Supreme Court pick.

Students at three recent college events threatened violence against conservative speakers, along with the student groups that invited them to speak on campus. This may be commonplace today, but what makes this hostility so much more shocking is that it occurred at colleges once considered eminent law schools: Georgetown University Law Center, Hastings College of Law at the University of California, and Yale Law School.
