“The main problem we have with Kavanaugh is the allegations of sexual assault.'
Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh is set to spend two weeks teaching a course for George Mason University's law school and while his class will take place in England, critics in America are pressuring the university to cut ties.
Mason for Survivors started a petition that’s about 400 signatures shy of its 2,500 signature goal and utilized the hashtag “Cancel Kavanaugh” to give Twitter users the opportunity to vocalize their support. While some Kavanaugh critics target his policies, the group’s opposition to the Supreme Court justice is about people on both sides of the aisle.
George Mason University President Ángel Cabrera acknowledged the criticism Kavanaugh’s teaching position received and offered an explanation as to why he was chosen. While the university president didn’t anticipate changing anyone’s mind, he said the course, along with a class taught by Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch, was part of the school’s continued effort to have students taught by the “most influential legal experts in the nation.
During her testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee in September, Mascott said Kavanaugh encouraged discussion among the law clerks and remained a close mentor to her in the years after her clerkship.
