In response to an online petition calling for the removal of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas as a professor at George Washington Law School, the school put out a statement both defending Thomas’s place on campus and affirming the school’s academic values.
In response to the June 24th Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, Jon Kay, a rising junior at George Washington, created an online petition calling for the removal of Justice Clarence Thomas as a lecturer at GW Law. Kay, who only recently learned that Thomas has lectured at GW Law since 2011, started the petition on Change.org this Sunday.
The petition claims that “the employment of Clarence Thomas at George Washington University is completely unacceptable.” According to Kay, “Judge Thomas is actively making life unsafe for thousands of students on our campus.” At the time of writing this article, the petition has amassed 7,414 signatures.
Despite this pressure, GW defended Judge Thomas’ position.
Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs Christopher Bracey, along with GW Law Dean Dayna Bowen Matthew, sent an email to the GW community on Tuesday with the heading: “Affirming Academic Freedom and Freedom of Expression at GW.” …

It is a great honor for a law school to have a Supreme Court justice as a professor.
“Judge Thomas is actively making life unsafe for thousands of students on our campus”
Nonsense, if the life of the mother is medically in peril, abortions have traditionally been allowed before Roe. v. Wade.
The same George Washington school which dropped the “Colonial” as their school mascot for being too white

They thought if they could do that, then going after Thomas would be a piece of cake. WRONG LEFTARDS!
If GW had an ounce of sense they would have told those signing this petition that each and every one of them is hereby disenrolled from GW Law School as Failures to understand the basics of the US Constitution and Basic Rule of Law in this country. Therefore, they have disqualified themselves.
Those were not abortions. Abortionists like to lie and say they were; they were induction of early birth. Murdering a baby to allegedly save the mother’s life would be a violation of the Hippocratic Oath.
“Jon Kay, a rising junior at George Washington...”
Rising?
Yes, like overworked bread dough.
Rising?
He will be a junior this fall.
Rising and falling, eh?
Every signer of that document should be kicked out of GW law and forbidden from holding any office of public trust for rest of their lives.

You said it better than I did.
Kudos.
L
you woudl think that pregnant women drop dead by the 1000’s every week-
Many doctors do not take a Hippocratic Oath even before Roe. Vanderbilt Medical School in Nashville is one of those that does not use it.
About time that GW showed some guts against the MARXIST and racist shits who are behind this.
In English, snotnose brat unfit to carry Thomas's books for him. In a decent society he'd be told to sit the hell down and shut the hell up.
Re a rising star. The little POS once sat on a broom-handle and got a Buttigieg thrill out of it.
Certainly explains more of the morass that the health care “system” is in these days.
Never mind sharing a name with the singer of Steppenwolf.
Yes, Hippocrates got it right in so many ways: testing, observing, first doing no harm, respecting life, and maintaining a professional appearance and manner.
