Stanford University officials have apologized to a federal judge after law students disrupted his campus appearance last week, while a new video of the event showed the judge lashing out at the students' behavior.

“In this school, the inmates have gotten control of the asylum,” he said in one clip, provided to Reuters by a student who requested their name be withheld.

He also said he felt attacked by Tirien Steinbach, the law school's associate dean for diversity, equity and inclusion. Steinbach addressed Duncan and students during the event, echoing the concerns protesters raised about his advocacy and judicial opinions while also clarifying his right to speak at the school.

“The administrators’ behavior was completely at odds with the law school’s mission of training future members of the bench and bar,” Duncan told the National Review.
