Stanford offers support to students traumatized by appearance of conservative judge
Twitchy.com ^ | March 13, 2023

Posted on 03/13/2023 4:17:37 PM PDT by lowbridge

As Twitchy reported last week, Fifth Circuit appellate judge Kyle Duncan appeared at Stanford Law School and was shouted down by protesters; Duncan later called the event a “bizarre therapy session from hell.” Duncan, you see, is a Trump-appointed judge and a member of the Federalist Society, but even worse: he once refused to use a transgender sex offender’s preferred pronouns in his opinion. When Duncan asked for an administrator to step in and restore order, DEI Dean Tirien Steinbach gave a short speech in which she said that she was “deeply, deeply uncomfortable.”

Jonathan Turley notes that Standford has sent out an email offering support from Steinbach:

-snip

Federalist Society leaders received an email (that went to all students) from acting Dean of Students Jeanne Merino to stress that traumatized students could seek “safety and mental health” support resources from various individuals, including Dean Steinbach.

As previously discussed, Steinbach shocked many by condemning Judge Kyle Duncan of the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit when he tried to speak at the event. Unable to speak, Duncan asked for an administrator to intervene and Steinbach stepped forward.

Steinbach promptly declared that “I had to write something down because I am so uncomfortable up here. And I don’t say that for sympathy, I just say that I am deeply, deeply uncomfortable.”

The email is also telling in its reflexive assumption that such conflicts are matters for emotional support. After Steinbach condemned Judge Duncan’s effort to speak as causing untold emotional harm to students, Stanford is now moving to deal with the emotional harm from Steinbach’s words … by directing them to Steinbach and others.

Stanford needs to cut its tuition by about 80%, afforded by huge faculty pay cuts and a purge of useless eaters from the payroll. An institution that has fallen to this level does not command top dollar.

Well, once again, the Babylon Bee is outdone by something that actually did occur.

And these are law students - meaning they already have been awarded college undergraduate degrees, and will likely all be awarded law degrees by this school.

Worth less than the paper they are printed on. They’re literally nuts...and soon coming to infiltrate legal institutions near you...and probably be appointed judges by Biden.

Yes, they are all about diversity - as long as you act only certain ways and believe only certain things that they agree with.

I hold multiple degrees and I would not be inclined to hire college graduates...probably better to hire straight of high school and train / educate them yourself.

Okie Dokie, no jobs for you whiny Stanford cry-babies. Resumes submitted by them or any other wokey pronoun pushers go right in the circular file to be shredded. Hire these idiots and you are just asking for a crapload of BS trouble.

It is time to close that failed and disgraced school.

Send everyone home to their Mommies and Daddies who will provide safe spaces for the former students traumatized by reality.

The judiciary is a fraternity/sorority of sorts. They tend to close ranks. Even liberal judges will note the treatment of one of their colleagues.

I was at Stanford in the 70’s.
It’s not the same place.
Sad and avoidable.

Yet the woke have achieved something essentially unique in human history: they are as a group self oppressing, not needing any tyrant to oppress them.

I like to think of them as like a flock of especially xenophobic birds who constantly announce that they belong lest the flock viciously turn on them at any moment for seeming different.

And as this constant virtue signal lest you be bullied is an irrational process it is inevitable that it is dominated by the loudest and / or most manipulative of the group, moderation and ultimately sanity itself are impossible to maintain.

"Stanford offers support to students traumatized by appearance of conservative judge"

Stanford has devolved into another retard factory.
