The New Neo Posted on April 16, 2025 by neoApril 16, 2025

The New Neo Posted on October 25, 2024 by neoOctober 27, 2024

I became interested in Critical Legal Studies long ago, in the 1980s. I had been to law school in the 1970s, so it didn’t affect my own legal education. To the best of my recollection, although my law school had … Continue reading →

The triumph of DEI at UCLA medical school

The New Neo Posted on May 23, 2024 by neoMay 23, 2024
