The problem is bigger than radical students and biased faculty--it's the institu-tional weakness that has allowed DEI bureaucracies to flourish. Shapiro met the mob firsthand when he posted a controversial tweet that led to calls for his firing from Georgetown Law. A four-month investi-gation eventually cleared him on a technicality but declared that if he offended anyone in the future, he'd create a \"hostile educational environment\" and be sub-ject to the inquisition again. Unable to do the job he was hired for, he resigned.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis cannot continue. In \u003ci\u003eLawless\u003c\/i\u003e, Shapiro reveals how the illiberal takeover of legal education threatens academic freedom and is transforming our country.
