Does this mean that high schools, including the Portland, Oregon school district, have to stop banning recruiters on campus as well?

Common sense prevails again. We need a lot more.

How about, if you allow any employment recruiters on campus, you cannot discriminate against the military?

Don't celebrate just yet. The ALCU has just announced that they will appeal this ruling to the UN.

Excellent news and long overdue.

Yale (along with hundreds of other anti-American universities) must be agonizing over this ruling.

Thought you may be interested in this!

Chief Justice Roberts:
"A military recruiter's mere presence on campus does not violate a law school's right to associate, regardless of how repugnant the law school considers the recruiter's message,"

I thought this had happened years ago.
How many times must the issue be revisited before the rules are enforced?

And liberals now get to realize what we small-government conservatives have known for a long time--if you get a handout from the government, there's ALWAYS strings attached. Once you take that money, if you want to keep it, you dance to their tune.

We've known it for decades with things like the Federal government bullying states into raising drinking ages and lowering blood-alcohol contents and mandating seat-belt laws by threatening to withhold highway funds. And now, the liberals get to feel the same pain.

Suck it down, fellas. Suck it down.

The law schools say they can't afford to lose $35 billion a year in federal aid? Who says we need to be churning out lawyers at that rate -- especially when the "brightest" of the law school professors couldn't even convince Justice Bader-Ginsburg that they have a "right" to federal cash regardless of their policies toward the federal government?

There is a conservative, states' rights argument on the school's side, but I don't know if that's the argument they used. The schools could argue that the federal government only has a right to specify how federal funds are used, but not to link acceptance of that money to other areas that are none of the Feds business. The schools could argue that the anti-recruitment ban is a state's decision, on a matter unrelated to acceptance of federal funds, that the feds have no authority to override.
