Beautiful tribute to Dick Fallon from Mike Dorf. I was one of many beneficiaries of Dick's generosity & was honored & excited to work w/him & Mike when they asked me to join their con law casebook after Fred Schauer passed. A huge personal & professional loss.

Found videos of @HarvardFedSoc conference I mentioned below (@Harvard_Law) on intellectual diversity in legal acad. Worth a look. Other speakers: Martha Minow, Dick Fallon, Steve Calabresi, @vicnourse @profnqr @JeannieSGersen @jacklgoldsmith @MarkTushnet

I gave a talk (in 2013) about when/why academics should & shouldn't care about intellectual diversity. More personal than my usual fare (& the most readable thing I've written--not saying that's a high bar). 1/9

Another aim for diversity--civic friendship--helps us decide which *kinds* of diversity matter. (A deeper sort of friendship is also at stake, stay tuned!) 4/9

One intellectual fruit of diversity (deeper than just hearing people voice conclusions you reject). 3/9

Law schools should feel free to be ideological (openly), and that could actually bear intellectual fruit! But. 2/9

most universities & colleges surely have faculty members who are contrarians? liberals & progressives are always quarreling with one another; "the left eats its own"; hiring conservatives per se will result in very lop-sided resumés especially in the sciences. really, research.
