Dershowitz "stepping down" from Harvard

This makes absolutely no sense. @AlanDersh retired from Harvard in 2013. He has no remaining connection to Harvard. His emeritus status is a matter of historical fact. There’s no “door” to show him. Get over it.

Well, this thread is useful for underlining that. I didn't remember and good to have it pointed out.

this is my biggest disappointment, up until his defense of Klaus von Bulow he was one of the people I most admired from during the'60's and '70's along with William Kunstler (and then he defended John Gotti).
