Yale Law School Dean Heather Gerken says the recent disruption of a bipartisan panel about civil liberties by hysterical woke leftists — where one student screeched “I will literally fight you, bitch” — did not violate the school’s free speech policy.

One of America’s best and brightest future Ivy League graduates screeched at the conservative panelist: “I will literally fight you, bitch!” Dean Gerken said...
