The elite law school's associate dean also questioned "is the juice worth the squeeze? Is this worth it?" as it pertained to the judge's ability to speak.

HUNDREDS OF MASKED STUDENTS SURROUND STANFORD LAW DEAN FOR APOLOGY TO HECKLED JUDGE: ‘EERIE’

Tirien Steinbach, the Stanford University Law School associate dean of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, slams U.S. Circuit Court Judge Kyle Duncan during his presentation at the school as an invited guest on March 9, 2023.

Audio published Wednesday by attorney and legal writer David Lat offered greater context for the disruption. While some previously contended it was only hard to hear the judge due to the poor audio quality of the video, the new recording made clear that when the DEI associate dean was speaking, she was able to be heard perfectly. However, when the judge spoke, there was so much heckling that his speech was not audible to listeners.

The audio recording also revealed the embattled judge dueling with protesters around ten minutes into his speech, after he gave up on being able to deliver his prepared remarks due to all the disruption. Duncan called the left wing campus protesters "juvenile idiots" and said that "prisoners are now running the asylum."

Students screamed "this is our jurisdiction!," "this is a valid form of communication!," and "you don't respect us!" at the judge. Later in his remarks, the judge questioned whether the event had become a "struggle session" - a reference to forced re-education that plagued communist countries in the 20th century.

Duncan's speech was not the only event hosted by a conservative group to be disrupted at a California campus this week. At UC Davis, conservative activist Charlie Kirk's appearance was met with violence and vandalism by ANTIFA members and far-Left students who clashed with police.

In an opinion piece published by Fox News Digital, legal scholar Jonathan Turley argued these two incidents represent a widespread attack on free speech

"Our institutions of higher education have become academic echo chambers where opposing views are no longer tolerated and preventing free speech is claimed to be acts of free speech," the George Washington Law professor wrote.
