After graduate school Kagan went on to become Dean of Harvard Law, where she removed Constitutional Law classes from the curriculum
Sounds false: Laurence Tribe is a well-known constitutional law professor who has been at Harvard for years, as are others including Charles Fried, U.S. Solicitor General under Pres. Reagan.

No, it’s true. Harvard had common law courses as a requirement for freshman law students. Those were replaced under Kagan’s revision of the curriculum, by positive law and international law.
Common law had been basic to all legal training at least back to the time of Magna Carta.
And the curriculum revision was especially disastrous because Harvard tends to be a model for other law schools.
