Maybe you but If I'm paying top dollar to go to law school I want both sides of a legal argument.

That's all they do in law school is argue both sides! You never heard of the guy who wanted a one-armed lawyer because his lawyer kept telling him: "Well, on the one hand ..."

Chesa Boudin? Both sides? Good luck with that.

"In my new role, just as I did as district attorney, I will continue to draw on networks of advocates, activists, judges and legal practitioners to support reform and advance safety in ways that are rigorous, principled and responsive to the lived experiences of directly impacted communities," Boudin said in the op-ed. "The center will systematically evaluate the outcomes of specific policies and communicate to the public which policy changes are essential to enhancing public safety and justice."

"...I’m choosing a different path for now — one that is still consistent with my lifelong commitment to fixing the criminal legal system, ending mass incarceration and innovating data-driven solutions to public safety challenges," he said.

What you don't realize is that elite academic institutions consider political office as kind of dilettantish.
This has nothing to do with her losing an election. Her decision-making abilities would embarrass a 2-year old, and her complete inability to foresee the obvious consequences of her actions places her squarely in imbecile territory. She simply doesn't have the intellectual capacity to teach anything, much less at a university.

I agree that elite academic institutions consider political office as kind of dilettantish, which is why the credibility of said institutions is at an all-time low.

Everything in that quote that he said is complete and utter BS. The voters tossed his ass to the curb.

These progressive retards can write any up to sound as fancy and good intentioned as they want, at the end of the day their social engineering gets people killed and create too much harm.

People have no shame. When I grew up when if you got fired for incompetence it was a shameful thing. These people double down on it. Like I said up thread, I'll never understand the far-left progressive's mindset.

Just like the commie Angela Davis (who should have had her citizenship stripped years ago), Lightfoot is just some celebrity hire to squeeze money out of the suckers. I'd be surprised if she actually shows up to "teach" a class more than half a dozen times a semester.

As a lifelong resident of New England, my opinion is MIT adds value to society while Harvard is a perpetual breeding ground for corruption.
