?My teaching philosophy is starting to mirror that of Morpheus in The Matrix, who told his pupil, Neo: ?I can only point you to the door. It is you who has to walk through it.??

So says Anxious Black Woman, in this post entitled “Advocacy on Behalf of Students of Color.” It gave me a lot to think about, for both general and specific (but unfortunately non-bloggable) reasons. Some students arrogantly demand special privileges, while others who need and deserve certain, entirely reasonable kinds of assistance are afraid to ask for it. My law school needs to do a better job with these issues, and that includes me personally.
