After more than 800 Harvard Law School alumni signed a letter asking
the university to drop Brett Kavanaugh as a lecturer, Kavanaugh threw in
the towel. The judged, accused of sexual assault, has been teaching at
Harvard for about 10 years and was supposed to teach a course, “The
Supreme Court Since 2005,“ next semester. Although the students hadn’t
yet submitted their letter, they were informed last night by a member of
the law school curriculum committee that the Supreme Court nominee ”…
indicated that he can no longer commit to teaching his course in
January Term 2019, so the course will not be offered.”
“Now more than ever,“ the students wrote, “HLS must send a clear
message that it takes sexual violence seriously. The accusations against
Judge Kavanaugh, including those by Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, are
credible and grave. They seriously call into question his character and
morality, and should disqualify him from … any position of esteem,
including lectureships at HLS.”
