NAS - The National Association of Scholars :: Articles and Archives Hypotheticals in the Criminal Law Classroom: An Interview with Lawrence Connell Ashley Thorne

NAS - The National Association of Scholars :: Articles and Archives Hypotheticals in the Criminal Law Classroom: An Interview with Lawrence Connell Ashley Thorne: "Professor Lawrence Connell, who teaches Criminal Law at Widener University, has been placed on administrative leave after students complained about him referring in classroom hypotheticals to killing the university dean, Linda Ammons.  

Some commentators have said that because Dean Ammons is black, his repeated referrals to her death, even for the sake of example, amount to racist and violence-invoking speech."
