Law schools must now adopt free speech policies in order to maintain their accreditation from the American Bar Association, following a key vote by the organization.

The ABA’s House of Delegates approved a new requirement that law schools develop and publish policies that “encourage and support the free expression of ideas.” Those policies must protect the rights of faculty, staff and students to communicate controversial or unpopular ideas and safeguard robust debate, demonstrations or protests.

The change comes after several high-profile incidents at elite law schools where student disrupted speakers and amid campus tensions over conflict over Israel’s war with Hamas. Read more on the policies.

Why is the Super Bowl in Las Vegas? Thank the U.S. Supreme Court

Over the Super Bowl’s 58-year history, Las Vegas remained sidelined as host. Until now. As Sin City prepares to welcome the San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs for the big game on Feb. 11, credit the U.S. Supreme Court for reshaping the sports betting landscape in a 2018 decision. Jenna Greene in her latest column caught up with Gibson Dunn’s Ted Olson, who successfully argued the case, for a look back at the fight.
