One of my students said I was “so human” today and that’s one of the best compliments ever. At the end of the day we’re all just people doing our best.

On October 1, the Justice Department found that UCLA Law discriminated against White and Asian students in their admission policies in violation of the law as outlined in SFFA: www.justice.gov/opa/media/14...

I hate that people are out there falsely accusing people of using AI without the slightest bit of self-awareness of their own ethical breaches in doing so. For example, breaching the confidentiality of peer-review process. I also hate that it makes me sound like I'm defending AI to point this out.

For them to be a so-called premier airline charging premium prices, Delta’s website and app are always a mess 😩 and I am, unfortunately, locked in 😒

A Texas Republican candidate had a bigoted outburst over a video of college-football fans—and his xenophobia should matter to both parties, Conor Friedersdorf argues.

A reminder that AI detection software triggers when the author is on the spectrum. We need to be careful with making accusations without facts. I thought a recent death would have highlighted that. arxiv.org/html/2607.14...

Mother Jones @motherjones.com · 27/08/2026
In the days following Charlie Kirk’s assassination, institutions rushed to appease online mobs and vitriolic politicians who demanded takedowns of anyone critical of the right-wing influencer. Now, courts have forced them to answer to something much more enduring than right-wing pressure: the law.

Does the ABA have a history of racial discrimination? Yes. Do we need a competent accrediting body for law schools? Also yes.

Lots of talk about AI and device bans in the law school classroom, not enough about smart glasses and privacy concerns, recording without permission.

To be a prominent antiracist Black scholar is to know you are a target, almost totally surrounded by resentments. You know that at any point, the attacks can come like a lynch mob. My latest @TheEmancipator.org. theemancipator.org/2026/08/15/i...

Akerman is hiring someone to train their attorneys on effective AI use. Meanwhile, laws schools: let’s ban devices in 1L classrooms

Renee Nicole @reneenicoleallen.bsky.social · 29/07/2026
Banning devices won’t stop law students from using AI 🤷🏾‍♀️ I’m also not the police or mom in the classroom. Let’s teach students how to effectively use it where appropriate, set expectations for when it’s not, and hold them accountable.

The pre-law coach/statement writer grift is at an all-time high and I'm so annoyed by it. In the last week, I have seen many coaches misinterpreting 509 data for clicks and likes. Even worse, when they are educated and challenged about the data, they are jerks.

I am also conflicted about showing a bunch of white nationalist assholes parading around DC while there is no (visible) attention given to efforts to drive them the fuck out. Why are they so comfortable walking around? Why are we so comfortable with seeing them and sharing their images? For what?

Went to LGA at 2p, boarded 5p flight at 4:20, deplaned at 6:15p, hung around listening to an optimistic pilot, re-boarded at 9p, deplaned at 12a. All this with a 1 yr old…got home around 2a. Not going to be with my family this weekend really sucks.

My last living grandfather died this morning at 80. He was actually my step grandfather but I would never refer to him as such. We both married into a family one year apart and he was everything to me during this transition. I love you, Pop. I’m so glad you got to meet Tre. Rest well.

It's happening 🚨 House GOP representatives are about to introduce a bill that would completely eliminate subsidized student loans. They are trying to make it impossible to go to college unless you can afford to pay for it upfront.

I’m gonna start posting about this type of commentary. As a new mom it infuriates me. God forbid I actually have a life outside of law teaching and sometimes speak about it. Apparently talking about your family=should not be teaching. 🙄🙄🙄
