With such controversial SCOTUS cases, how are law professors reacting?
from The Week in Philly from KYW Newsradio · host Audacy
Last year, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, which gave women a constitutional right to an abortion. Last month, they gutted affirmative action which ended race-conscious admissions at colleges. In addition to the controversial decisions, it seems like key principles like standing and precedent, in some cases are being pushed aside. Is this a fair conclusion? We spoke with Laura Little, the James G. Schmidt Chair in Law at Temple University's Beasley School of Law, to get an answer and see if these recent decisions are changing the way professors teach the law.
