Amid Amy Chua controversy, Yale Law professors say it was tough, but they kept to COVID rules

NEW HAVEN — You could call them the “Brillies.”
They likely would answer, as that is the special name for a small group of about 15 Yale Law School students who are assigned during their first-year fall semester to Yale law professor Lea Brilmayer.
And the law school’s small groups have gotten a lot of publicity lately because of Professor Amy Chua.
Chua did not lead a small group last year, after she was confronted by law school Dean Heather Gerken with having students to her house. She denied that she violated the Yale guidelines for pandemic gatherings and said she withdrew from the group. Her disagreement with the law school made national news, but other professors said they kept to the university rules despite the difficulty.

The Statue of Liberty famously proclaims, “Give me your tired, your poor,” and so on. Less famously, it’s builders asked quarries along the Connecticut shoreline to give them their pink granite rock — 450 tons of it — for Lady Liberty to stand on.
The pink granite, concentrated in a vein running through Branford and Guilford, has been making its way around the Northeast and points beyond since the first quarry was opened in Branford’s eastern side in 1858. The stone has been used at Columbia University, the foundation of the Brooklyn Bridge, Grand Central Station, Boston’s South Terminal Station, Philadelphia’s Reading Terminal Market and the National Air and Space Museum. Closer to home, the granite can be found in the jetties at Hammonasset Beach and the foundations for Hartford’s Bulkeley Bridge.
