The bar association of America controls all conduct related to proceedings, lawyers as well as students in all law Institutions in the USA.
The bar association of America now seeks to exercise its authority in banning “disruptive conduct that hindeers free expression”. This contemplation comes after the alarming incidents at Yale School of law and Stanford School of Law.
What Happened At Yale?
A quite heated debate was going on in between conservative and democratic supporters. The conservative speaker was attacked with “I’ll hurt you, bitch” as the debate on free speech took a difficult turn.
Despite the violence depicted in the debate, the school’s authority and the federalist society who organized the event have stated that the event did not need police assistance.
This Ivy League college had back then made claims of speaking to the group for their alarming behavior.
This incident took place earlier in March 2023 and is seeing its repercussions now in August.
What Happened At Stanford?
Tirien Steinbach has bragged about her behavior of challenging a Trump-appointed judge during a protest at school. Steinbach is an equity dean at Stanford Law School. The commotion took place when Judge Duncan went to deliver a speech in this prestigious Law School. He was greeted with posters stating the crimes he committed against women, black people, and the LGBTQ community.
Instead of coming to the students, the dean lectures the judge for a few minutes on their behavior.
