AutoAdmit Horrors Continue

Brian Leiter relates more horrors associated with
the AutoAdmit discussion board in his blog post
of 4/19/2007
.

According to Leiter, the dean of the University of California,
Hastings College of Law, acting on the advice of the FBI,
cancelled classes and evacuated a law school building last
Wednesday after becoming aware of a threatening message
directed at Hastings posted on the AutoAdmit discussion board.


The message was allegedly authored by a student Boalt Hall.
Leiter reprints letters from an AutoAdmit spokesperson and
from the deans of Hastings and Boalt Hall with their responses
to the incident.
