50 student leaders have written an an open letter asking GW Law to “rethink” its decision not to fire Supreme Court Justice Clarance Thomas from the GW Law Faculty. Leaders include Student Association senators, the Student Association executive cabinet and leaders of student organizations. “The letter argues Thomas’s lecturing contributes to discrimination, which they say nullifies the University’s ‘academic freedom’ defense of Thomas.”
“Nearly 9,000 people have signed a petition calling for Thomas’ removal from the law school’s faculty, but officials rejected those demands in an email sent to the University community.”
