A clash between one of the nation’s most unqualified federal prosecutors and one of its most celebrated constitutional scholars spilled into public view.

Georgetown University’s law school should remove all DEI from its courses if it wants students to intern with the U.S. attorney for D.C., according to a recent letter. U.S. Attorney Ed Martin, the federal prosecutor for Washington, D.C., asked Dean William Treanor if he had “eliminated” DEI from classes, and if not, if he planned to.

Dean William Treanor said Acting U.S. Attorney Ed Martin's threat to blacklist students if the school didn't stop teaching DEI was a clear First Amendment violation.

The school's dean argues the First Amendment "guarantees that the government cannot direct what Georgetown and its faculty teach and how to teach it."

Georgetown Law School’s dean has rebuffed an unusual warning from the top federal prosecutor for Washington, D.C., that his office won’t hire the private school’s students if it doesn’t eliminate diversity,

Georgetown Law School Dean William Treanor is defending his school’s curriculum after the Washington, D.C., U.S. attorney threatened to not hire any students from institutions that teach diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI).
