The Penn Law School Mob Scores a Victory - WSJ:
"The campus mob at the University of Pennsylvania Law School has scored a hit.
Prof. Amy Wax will no longer be allowed to teach required first-year courses, the school’s dean announced last week.
Now the leader of Black Lives Matter Pennsylvania wants Ms. Wax’s scalp.
According to a weekend newspaper report, if she isn’t fired within a week, “he plans to make things on the West Philadelphia campus very uncomfortable.”
Ms. Wax’s sin this time was to discuss publicly the negative consequences of affirmative action.
Her punishment underscores again the dangers of speaking uncomfortable truths in a university setting.
The academic left has been gunning for Ms. Wax since last August, when she co-wrote a Philadelphia Inquirer op-ed calling for a return to the “bourgeois culture” of the 1950s.
She was branded a white supremacist for advocating personal responsibility, even though the op-ed criticized “the single-parent, antisocial habits, prevalent among some working-class whites.”
