OUR LAW SCHOOL DEAN is upset with us because the state chapter of the National Association of Scholars issued a press release quoting from her email to law students commenting on the theft of Scott Dillon's data from their mailboxes.

Here's the full email:

Dear Students,

A graduating student, Scott M. Dillon, believes that a packet of materials he placed in the mailboxes of all students was removed. That packet contains Scott's views and claims about admissions' practices at the Law School. The proper remedy for most speech is, of course, more speech. I would like to believe that no one in our community thinks otherwise. Scott has the material he distributed in electronic form. He is happy to provide it for anyone who would like a copy. His email address is [email protected].

Yours,

Lauren Robel,

Dean, School of Law

The Dean of the Law School sent an email to all students saying that Scott Dillon "believes" that material which "contains Scott's views and claims" "was removed" from the mailboxes. Her comment on the purported event: "The proper remedy for speech is, of course, more speech. I would like to believe that no one in our community believes otherwise." She declined, however, to remedy the theft by attaching to her email the material that had been stolen, merely saying that other students could email Dillon and ask him individually for the information if they wished.
