US Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas withdrew from co-teaching a fall seminar at George Washington University Law School amid student protests.

The law school on Wednesday said Thomas would no longer teach the constitutional law course with his former law clerk, Gregory Maggs. The news was first reported by the GW Hatchet, a campus newspaper.
