March 2023 turned out to be a month to forget for Stanford University as the prestigious school weathered a series of controversies that garnered national media attention and raised questions about the institution's commitment to freedom of speech.

On March 9, a group of Stanford Law School students settled into their seats to listen to a lecture by Kyle Duncan, a federal judge on the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, on the"conversation" between the Supreme Court and the 5th Circuit on COVID-19 restrictions and gun laws.But the event didn't last long.

And through all of the controversy, Tessier-Lavigne has been weathering accusations that he fabricated a study on Alzheimer's disease that he published in 2009, before he became the president of the university. DeVos, in a Wall Street Journal op-ed, highlighted the case of Gries's perjury charge and said it was a teachable moment for the Department of Education to consider the importance of due process while adjudicating Title IX complaints.

Luke Schumacher, a student at Stanford Law School, told the Washington Examiner that he was"heartened" and not at all surprised that Martinez had spoken out forcefully against those who had sought to silence Duncan's speech. "I’ve had several admitted students reach out to me expressing their concerns with the state of affairs at Stanford Law," he said."[But] I’ve assured them that Stanford Law is the best place to get a legal education, filled with serious, professional, thoughtful students and faculty. And I’ve assured them that things will improve here. I hope I’m right. Unlike my friends trying to dismantle institutions that need reform, I do not believe this law school is somehow irredeemable.
