Monday Is The Last Day To Submit Comments On ABA's Proposal To Mandate Racism And Bias Training At All Law Schools

"Following up on my previous posts:

Brian Leiter notes that Monday is the last day for submitting comments on the ABA's proposed changes to the law school accreditation standards to mandate racism and bias training. 

Here are some of the interesting comments submitted thus far:

David Bernstein and Brian Leister [sic]:

Professor Brian Leiter and I agree on very little...By seeming to mandate such preferences, the ABA would be taking the decision out of the hands of the individual schools, and instead making it a requirement of accreditation. If a particular law school disagreed with the ABA"s views on diversity, the ABA would nevertheless require that school to act illegally lest its accreditation be threatened.
