Make it permanent!

Tirien Steinbach, the diversity administrator at Stanford Law School who stoked a disruptive protest of Fifth Circuit appellate judge Kyle Duncan, is "currently on leave," according to a memo on the protest reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon.
Jenny Martinez, the law school's dean, said in a Wednesday morning memo to all law students that administrators "should not insert themselves into debate with their own criticism of the speaker's views." At future talks, the role of administrators will be to "ensure that university rules on disruption of events will be followed," Martinez said.
Martinez gave no additional details on the terms of Steinbach's leave, stating that the "university does not comment publicly on pending personnel matters." She also ruled out disciplining any of the students who shouted down Duncan—in part, she said, because administrators sent "conflicting signals about whether what was happening was acceptable or not."
Instead, the law school will require all students to attend a training on "freedom of speech and the norms of the legal profession," which will discuss, among other things, how "vulgar personal insults" can harm students' "professional reputations."

Make it permanent!
Agree. Rude, raging Harpie.
They need to expel the disruptive students too.
Guilty!
Give me a Q..a U..an O..a T..an A
What’s that spell, Tirien Steinbach!
“…how “vulgar personal insults” can harm students’ “professional reputations.””
In a sane world, those kids should have just flushed their budding law careers down the toilet.
Pretty Aryan-sounding last name on that one.
Paid leave. BFD
WHOA! This is encouraging...
“she served as president of the Berkeley Law Foundation and vice president of the Law Students of African Descent.”
Where the water fountains are I’m sure for black folk only.......sounds familiar?

I suspect their careers are over—no law firm will touch these children. They will be relegated to chasing car accidents “IF” they get past the Bar exam.
She made me feel uncomfortable.
I would put her on a “just leave.”
As in, hey, just leave.
I’m guessing that the law school got a lot of pushback on this from alumni.
Those weren’t kids attacking the judge. They are in law school. Everyone of them is a fifth year student at minimum. They weren’t first semester freshmen. They all already had earned an undergraduate degree from somewhere in order to get accepted into Stanford law. Apparently they didn’t learn much while acquiring the degree. Now, the dean of Stanford feels they need a quick course in common sense. At most institutions of higher learning in this country most first semester freshmen would know that the behavior exhibited toward Judge Duncan should not be foisted upon ANY guest that is invited to speak anywhere on the campus by a duly recognized organization. Emily Post would also have some choice comments to share about such behavior too.
Paid vacation until things settle down.
Paid leave count on it. AKA vacation
Yes, permanent as in: “stand over there until we toss the noose over the tree limb. Won’t take long. Any last words?”
This TWOT did what another Uni admin Ahole did up north when participating in a demonstration against a local shop. When admin does that they make the Uni financially responsible for consequences. Sue Standford into the ground. Wipe it out.
Yeah, how soon before they quietly bring her back, with a raise - and soon she’ll be on the talk show circuit, with a lucrative book deal and hailed as a hero for standing up to White Supremacy and Toxic Masculinity?
She’s already a hero to her students.
Hope they suffer the same fate as Yale law graduates:
“Judges refuse to hire ‘woke’ Yale graduates amid cancel culture row.
Boycott of future students as top US law school accused of undermining free speech.”
Blowback from older law school donors?
