Tirien Steinbach, the diversity administrator at Stanford Law School who stoked a disruptive protest of Fifth Circuit appellate judge Kyle Duncan, is "currently on leave," according to a memo on the protest reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon.
Jenny Martinez, the law school's dean, said in a Wednesday morning memo to all law students that administrators "should not insert themselves into debate with their own criticism of the speaker's views." At future talks, the role of administrators will be to "ensure that university rules on disruption of events will be followed," Martinez said.
Martinez gave no additional details on the terms of Steinbach's leave, stating that the "university does not comment publicly on pending personnel matters." She also ruled out disciplining any of the students who shouted down Duncan—in part, she said, because administrators sent "conflicting signals about whether what was happening was acceptable or not."
Instead, the law school will require all students to attend a training on "freedom of speech and the norms of the legal profession," which will discuss, among other things, how "vulgar personal insults" can harm students' "professional reputations."

It doesn't help when Democrat leaders in Congress want the indoctrinated students and young lefties to "get in the faces" of Trump supporters and Conservatives.
Stanford and many Ivy League colleges in the U.S. have long been the targets of communist-supported governments, businesses, and NGO's whose "contributions" (read bribes) have held sway over the indoctrination techniques used by these left-wing extremist "think tanks".
Majority of the Dean's in our colleges are nothing but Commie, Socialist Rats. And have No business teaching our Kids.
Guest Speakers are not there for DEBATE... They are normally invited o speak on a particular topic to share their expertise with the students... The suspension of the Diversity Dean is nothing more than a paid leave to get him out of the public eye until the controversy blows over... Then it will be back to the university's long-held leftist ideology that penalizes conservative speech.
Parents would be well advised to avoid such Universities as they are ideologically... leftist institutions of indoctrination.
"Currently on leave" should be fired and the students who participated in the walk-out should be kicked out of school!. They obviously don't have the brains to know how to behave or to understand our Constitution. And if they can't understand the Constitution; they can't understand the principle of the rule of law.
ALL Diversity "Officers" should be fired and all educational and/or professional corporate entities should have to undergo remedial education into what Free Speech, Free Thought, Equal Rights, Meritorious Behavior and Responsibilty--mean.
They should fire The diversity Administrator and all the snowflakes who blocked Free Speech by a sitting Judge. These socialists have no place on the US Court System. Support Freedom not Socialism.
