World Can't Wait activists returned to Boalt Hall Wednesday to deliver a message to students:John Yoo teaching constitutional law to the next generation of lawyers and judges is a perverse mockery of what a law school education should be. At best, the professor's opinion of Supreme Court rulings is irrelevant. But deliberate misinterpretation of legal precedent is not only dangerous; it is potentially criminal. Former dean Jesse Choper knows this -- or should. And Christopher Edley must stop legitimating the discredited work of an admitted war criminal.
