Side question: Would Professor Kingsfield have signed?
Posted on 08/06/2020 10:44:39 AM PDT by rktman
Numerous law school deans recently wrote to the American Bar Association urging the organization to require bias training for all of its law schools.
Over 150 law school deans sent a letter on July 30 to the ABA Section of Legal Education and Admissions to the Bar, which oversees the licensing and education of attorneys, urging it to expand the required minimum educational requirements.
They argue that it is essential that attorneys understand racial and cultural issues.
The letter stated:
Preparing law students to be lawyers requires that they should be educated with respect to bias, cultural awareness, and anti-racism. Such skills are essential parts of professional competence, legal practice, and being a lawyer. We believe that every law school should develop such training and education for its students.
The American Bar Association mandates the minimum requirements that every law school must meet, though often it is left to individual law schools to decide how to implement these obligations. We believe that the ABA should require, or at least consider requiring, that every law school provide training and education around bias, cultural competence, and anti-racism.

Well that’s not so bad. We can find 150 new deans rather
easily.
Teach the young lawyers HOW to be biased?????
Will members of officially designated grievance groups be exempt? How about card-carrying Marxists?
Hey, ‘they’ are learnin’ the younguns’ (pre school) about how evil their parents are for owning slaves already so.............
“Thar’s gold in that thar’ bias!”, scream Professors of Law.
I have claimed, and continue to claim, that the legal mind is anti-intellectual and thus easily influenced by totalitarianism.
America graduates each year more than twice the number of lawyers as can find work in the field.
Law schools are a gigantic scam against young people.
All publicly-funded law schools could easily be de-funded and closed without any impact on the availability of American lawyers. There are over 200 law schools in America.
We can easily close 150 of them without noticing any problem. Let’s just fire the 150 deans and close their law schools rather than worry about “bias” training.

understand racial and cultural issues. why 13 percent of the population is causing 95 percent of the crime in this country? What a crock of sh##, let the go free if they are illegals or black
Sorry. Lawyers are the ones that fought the battle.
LOL. There is no position more easily replaced than a college dean.
You would be wrong.
No they aren’t. Law schools teach how to think critically, how to solve problems and how to articulate. Some of the best executives and business owners are lawyers. It’s a hugely valuable education whether or not you practice.
Maybe they ought also to require full legal protection for students accused of sexual misconduct;
and a pro-active defense for students blatantly falsely accused by local town officials in a scam to obtain money...
“You come to this law school with a head full of mush.
Three years and $180000 of tuition later, you leave this law school with a head full of oatmeal.”
On July 27th, the State Bar of Texas’ Board of Directors approved “[t]hat the State Bar Minimum Continuing Legal Education Committee consider making implicit bias training an MCLE requirement for Texas attorneys and that the committee return with a recommendation by the board’s January 2021 meeting.”
In other words, it won’t just be law students that will be brainwashed with this anti-white bullshit.
Almost, they are almost advocating treating them like Chicago - let them stay free to steal, maim and murder . . . at least until someone shoots them dead in the street.
Only trouble is, not even innocent babies are safe under that plan. . . .
That doesn't sound very good.
Buy stock in rope makers. A lot will be needed soon!
