Boston College Law School Community Members Protests Mukasey as Commencement Speaker

ADVERTISEMENTS

Some law students, faculty, and alumni of Boston College Law School are speaking out against the administration's selection of Attorney General Michael Mukasey as the law school's 2008 commencement speaker, according to news reports. One alum started a group on Facebook called "waterboarding is torture" to discuss the issue. The name of the discussion group refers to the Attorney General's refusal, during his confirmation hearings, to declare that waterboarding constitutes torture.

In announcing Attorney General Mukasey's acceptance of the invitation to speak at commencement, Dean of the Boston College Law School John Garvey said "It is a singular honor for Boston College to have the Attorney General of the United States as our commencement speaker."
