Something similar happened after Stanford students shouted down a judge speaking at the school a few years ago.The College Fix reports:
Top D.C. federal prosecutor says he doesn’t want law students from Georgetown because of DEIGeorgetown University’s law school should remove all DEI from its courses if it wants students to intern with the U.S. attorney for D.C., according to a recent letter.U.S. Attorney Ed Martin, the federal prosecutor for Washington, D.C., asked Dean William Treanor if he had “eliminated” DEI from classes, and if not, if he planned to.Martin (pictured) wrote to Treanor:
First, have you eliminated all DEI from your school and its curriculum?Second, if DEI is found in your courses or teaching in anyway, will you move swiftly to remove it?At this time, you should know that no applicant for our fellows program, our summer internship, or employment in our office who is a student or affiliated with a law school or university that continues to teach and utilize DEI will be considered.
Though the letter is dated February 17, Martin sent it again on March 3 due to a technical error, according to The Post Millennial.
The news outlet noted that Georgetown’s law school heavily embraces DEI:
In his “welcome” page on the Georgetown Law website, Treanor highlights the importance of DEI as he sees it. “At Georgetown Law,” Treanor writes, “we are committed to the Jesuit concept of cura personalis – educating the whole person – and advancing justice through the law. Central to these core values is an emphasis on holistic learning, wellness, and creating a campus culture where all community members can thrive. This commitment is also evidenced in our work in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). Our belief in the critical importance of DEI is rooted in our founding as an institution that has always sought to open more doors and to be a force for social justice.”
Dean Treanor also has been critical of statements by academics that take aim at affirmative action.
