Washington University Law Students Belatedly Do The Right Thing
The Washington University Law School Student Government (SBA) decided to recognize a pro-life student group after voting just last week not to, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports. The Post has no trouble saying the ACLU "demanded" the SBA reverse itself, despite no mention of the dispute on their website, but couldn't bring itself to mention the name of FIRE (Foundation for Individual Rights in Education), which only provided support in the words of the Post, even though an earlier editorial had no such trouble, FIRE features the flap prominently on their website, FIRE has written the dean, and FIRE wrote a joint letter with the ACLU to the SBA asking them to change their position. Why do I still get the Post? My wife saves more with the coupons than a subscription costs, so I'm not allowed to cancel our subscription.
