Parents, please don't waste your money sending your kids to Yale Law School.

I saw a group of Yale law students protesting free speech at a Free Speech Symposium with an invited conservative guest speaker, on the news today. They were bullying, abusive, and threatened the speaker with physical violence, right in front of Yale Administrators, who just stood there saying and doing nothing.

What we should think about very carefully is what Yale Law students are being taught, because, supposedly these are the lawmakers of the future.

I don't think anyone has taught them about civility, free and open debate, calm demeanor in the courtroom, or that the Constitution of the United States is the LAW. It was, in fact, our FIRST set of laws, and it contains the Bill of Rights, which includes the right to free speech.

Most of these students, (if they continue to behave like spoiled brats having tantrums), will be unemployable.

Parents...don't throw your money down the toilet.

I have never hired an Ivy League graduate. They come through occasionally, but the other applicants blow them away about being human. Their grades got them the interview, their attitude and personality blew it for them. That type of behavior from that area of the country does not surprise me.

@TexChik What a shame. I believe the tuition at Yale, with room and board, is upwards of $80,000 a year. Imagine a pair of fond parents welcoming their child right back home, unemployable, after this expense.
