Students at Yale Law School staged a sit-in on Monday and called for an investigation into sexual assault accusations against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.
Videos and photos posted on Twitter show dozens of students dressed in black lining the hallway at Yale's Sterling Law Building. The move led some faculty members to either cancel or reschedule classes, the law school said.

Penn and Teller got hundreds to sign a petition against dihydrogen monoxide.
Can we ban all Yale graduates from future federal employment? I think the country would be far better off.
It’d never happen under my watch and that reason 1,287 why I’m not head of a law school or any higher institution of learning.
If I had caught wind of this, a quick e-mail would have gone out to the all law students and it’d have been something like this...
Your right to protest is guaranteed. No one will take it away from you. But when you choose to protest in a manner that results in professors having to cancel or reschedule class, you are interfering with the rights of others.
Please read the following and consider it a one-time warning. If you do this again, I will seek to have you suspended for the remainder of the academic year. You will be able to re-apply for admission next academic year. There is no appeal process in effect here.
Thank you.
MplsSteve, Dean of Yale Law School
“Can we ban all Yale graduates from future federal employment?”
Excellent idea - but why stop at Yale? Banning the entire Ivy League would be better.
An excellent idea!
RE: Can we ban all Yale graduates from future federal employment? I think the country would be far better off.
Unfortunately, we can’t. There are many Yale alumni who we need in government. Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, and now... Brett Kavanaugh.
And they have any say in this, because?
Hmmmm.. When I went to law school many long years ago, two of the first things taught were the absolute imperatives of due process and knowing all the facts before reaching a decision. Looks like these “best and brightest” youts ain’t so fair or so bright after all.
you forgot “no refunds”.
They are still ‘young skulls full of mush’.
There was a statute of limitations at the time of the alleged offense. As per SCOTUS it couldn’t be repealed due to ex post facto law prohibition.
OH MY, Yale law students!
Spit.

The same Yale who has more homo than conservatives in their incoming Freshman class?
What part of ‘Innocent till proven guilty’ don’t these pathetic idiots understand. The Tomás de Torquemada school of law.
They will make fine cadres for the next phase of this stupidity - which will be the emergence of a nationwide group of violent revolutionary crybabies modeled after either the Maoist Red Guard or Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge.
The elitist fools don't even realize that they will be among the first ones to be lined up 'against the wall' by their erstwhile comrades.
Imagine the useful idiots' confusion when "their" revolution takes its predictable and natural course...
Since our public schools and universities refuse to remind them of 20th Century history, then we must. Does anyone have a detailed list of the predictable "Progressive" slogans and tactics used in each "Revolucion!", and the equally predictable aftermaths? I think it would be very useful to disseminate widely for the next decade.
Aren't we up to 22 cycles now? Russia, China, Cuba, El Salvador, Laos, Nicaragua, Spain, Yugoslavia, Vietnam, Bulgaria, Cambodia, Venezuela, Korea, Congo, Ethiopia, Afghanistan... which ones am I missing?
Since they’re so upset, they should be angry at Ford for not reporting it at the time.
On the bright side it’s now very safe for me to say that I, a former construction worker, know a lot more about the law than a Yale law student.
Yale has proved it is time to put an end to co-ed campuses
