In a 1994 interview, then-Harvard Law School dean Robert
Clark said his institution was actively applying an affirmative action policy
to hiring female faculty, The Daily Caller has learned. The famed law school
first offered Massachusetts Democratic Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren a
professorship in 1992 and granted her tenure in 1995.
And charges leveled in a 1990 academic law
journal raised serious questions about her qualifications to teach at Harvard
at all.
In 1991, Rutgers Professor Phillip
Schuchman reviewed Warren’s co-authored 1989 book “As We Forgive Our Debtors: Bankruptcy and Consumer Credit in
America” in the pages of the Rutgers Law Review, a publication Warren once
edited. Schuchman found “serious errors” which result in “grossly mistaken
functions and comparisons.”
Warren and her co-authors had drawn improper conclusions
from “even their flawed findings,” and “made their raw data unavailable” to
check, he wrote. “In my opinion, the authors have engaged in repeated instances
of scientific misconduct.”
The work “contains so much exaggeration, so many
questionable ploys, and so many incorrect statements that it would be well to
check the accuracy of their raw data, as old as it is,” Schuchman added.
Harvard Law School appears to have overlooked that review,
in part, because of its commitment to hiring a woman professor. . . . . .
