Lambda vs. Ropes & Gray

Fr. Araujo's reflection on Harvard law students' threatened protests against Ropes & Gray raises some interesting questions for me.  One thing I emphasize with my students is the need for lawyers to take moral responsibility for their professional decisions.  And that would include, I believe, exercising students' marketplace power to make firms accountable for the causes they take on.  So while I disagree with the students' belief that the representation of Catholic Charities in this context is illegitimate, I have to applaud their engagement with the moral dimension of legal work.
