Professor Bernard Harcourt was one of 2,400 law professors to have signed on to a letter to the US Senate saying that Supreme Court nominee Brett M. Kavanaugh displayed a lack of judicial restraint at his Senate hearing.
Harcourt was quoted in a number of venues, including the Wall Street Journal and the Washington Post, commenting on the letter, stating that Brett Kavanaugh "did not display the impartiality and judicial temperament requisite to sit on the highest court of our land."
Professor Bernard Harcourt moderated the “Facing the Present, Imagining the Future” panel at the Center for the Study of Social Difference anniversary symposium.
