Cornell Law Federalist Society Hosting of ‘Racist’ UPenn Professor Faces Backlash


Reading time: about 8 minutesAmy Wax, a law professor at the University of Pennsylvania who is currently suspended for making racist and sexist remarks, spoke at a March 25 Cornell Law School Federalist Society event. The Cornell Federalist Society is a chapter of the national Federalist Society, a legal group focused on promoting conservative and libertarian theories. Eboda said he felt the timing of the publicization was because the Cornell Federalist Society “didn’t want” those not in the Federalist Society at the event, he told The Sun. Naqib said there was a “double standard” between how the law school allowed the Cornell Federalist Society to bring a speaker on such short notice and “all of the obstacles” faced in the past organizing events about Palestine. ’26, co-presidents of the Cornell Federalist Society, said Federalist Society national policy does not allow chapters to make public statements of any kind.
