Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh has been teaching courses at Harvard since 2008, but his time with the university may be coming to an end.
In an email sent to Harvard Law School students Monday, the university said Kavanaugh's class on the Supreme Court, planned to last three weeks starting in January 2019, will no longer be offered, per The Harvard Crimson. Harvard said this is because "Judge Kavanaugh indicated that he can no longer commit to teaching his course."
