At Jesuit Universities, D.E.I. Crackdown is Attack on Religious Freedom

This past March, Georgetown University Law Center fended off an extraordinary incident of unprecedented government overreach when the chief federal prosecutor for our district, interim U.S. Attorney Edward R. Martin Jr., opened an inquiry into the content of our curriculum. Such incursions constitute a threat of the highest order to our nation’s First Amendment values. Now more than ever, it is urgent to stand up for our university’s autonomy to make curricular decisions based on its Jesuit mission.
