Penn Law professor who said black students are ‘rarely' in top half of class loses teaching duties
 [WAPO] A University of Pennsylvania law school professor will no longer teach required courses following outcry over a video in which she suggested ‐ falsely, according to the school ‐ that black students seldom graduated high in their class.Amy Wax, a tenured professor, will continue to teach electives in her areas of expertise but will be removed from teaching first-year curriculum courses, Penn Law Dean Theodore Ruger said in a statement Wednesday. Ruger said Wax spoke "disparagingly and inaccurately" when she claimed last year that she had "rarely, rarely" seen a black student finish in the top half of their class.
