The dean of Stanford Law School and the university president apologized to federal Judge Kyle Duncan after a group of students and at least one administrator disrupted a planned lecture by the Republican-appointed jurist last week.
In a Saturday letter, Stanford President Marc Tessier-Lavigne and law school Dean Jenny Martinez apologized to Duncan, a Trump appointee on the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, for the disruption of his Thursday lecture, and said"what happened was inconsistent with our policies on free speech.
Duncan was supposed to speak about the"conversation" between Supreme Court and the 5th Circuit on COVID restrictions and gun laws, but the event was disrupted by a group of protesters that included associate dean of diversity, equity, and inclusion Tirien Steinbach.
