Who's Safeguarding Speech at Stanford Law?
with David Sacks and Spencer Segal

As some of you may know, earlier this month, student protesters at Stanford Law School disrupted an event featuring Federal Judge Kyle Duncan, a Christian conservative who was invited to campus by the school’s Federalist Society student chapter. The protesters shouted insults and vulgarities as he tried to speak, preventing Judge Duncan from making it all the way through his remarks and disallowing others in attendance from hearing what he had to say.

It would be bad enough if only student protesters disrupted the event, but in this instance they were abetted by a member of the law school’s administration, Associate Dean for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Tirien Steinbach. Dean Steinbach appeared to grant these actions institutional approval, when she should have called out both the violation of the school’s speech codes and the undermining of a basic right that law students should be learning how to safeguard.

In this excerpt from a longer conversation, Stanford Law School students David Sacks and Spencer Segal describe what they saw at the Judge Duncan event. Fortunately, Stanford Law School Dean Jenny Martinez subsequently issued a very strong defense of free speech and an apology to Judge Duncan. That was the right thing to do. But the fact that it was necessary at all demonstrates just how tenuous our grip on the basic principle of free speech is becoming. If those responsible for guiding the education and values of future lawyers, judges, and elected officials can’t stand up for the principles that law schools are meant to perpetuate, they should find another line of work. And if our institutions abdicate their responsibility to defend that most important right, none of our other rights will be worth much at all.
