We are so proud of @CommLPoly associate editor @Ali_Christopher for writing this brave piece as a tribute to Angela Lansbury.

We think everyone should be "free to love, free to celebrate, free to be one's true self."

Bravo, Chris!

[Christopher Ali @Ali_Christopher]

We guess it's OK that our @CommLPoly editor publishes her research somewhere else, but...

[Amy Kristin Sanders @amy_k_sanders]

For my #MediaLaw and #1A folks: @kirkvonk (now a 1L @UMDLaw) and I take a historical look at today's #defamation criticism using Justice Powell's papers. Kudos to Kirk, who is an archival research machine!

First day solidarity with all our colleagues going back to class today:

"I would rather do anything else than write the Syllabus for your class.

I would rather sit through 15 hours of returning faculty orientation. And take notes."
