George Washington University will retain Clarence Thomas as a professor amid protest
CNN
George Washington University has decided to stand by US Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, despite protests from students calling for his termination.
In addition to his role on the court, Thomas is an adjunct professor at the university, where he teaches a constitutional law seminar at its law school. Citing Thomas' concurring opinion in overturning Roe v. Wade -- as well as his wife's role in the effort to overturn the 2020 electoral result and his stated desire to revisit decisions concerning same-sex marriage and contraception -- more than 7,000 people have signed a petition calling for his termination.
"Judge Thomas is actively making life unsafe for thousands of students on our campus (not to mention thousands of campuses across the country)," the petition reads.
