Yale Law school congratulated Hillary Clinton when she won Dem nomination in 2016
The day after Hillary Clinton was nominated by the Democratic National Committee in 2016, Yale Law School congratulated Clinton, class of 1973, “on her historic nomination for President of the United States.” Eight years later, it is refusing to congratulate J.D. Vance on his actual election.
The school has made no statement about the vice president-elect, who graduated from Yale Law in 2013, since he and Donald Trump scored a landslide victory on Tuesday. And according to Debra Kroszner, the law school’s chief of staff, it doesn’t plan to.
Kroszner told the Washington Free Beacon that the school would include “this news” in the next issue of its alumni magazine—which is only published twice a year—but would not congratulate Vance publicly, citing a new policy against issuing institutional statements.
