   Ilya Shapiro, who was at the center of a prolonged debate over cancel   
   culture and campus intolerance, resigned from his Georgetown Law Center   
   position Monday shortly after being reinstated from a lengthy leave.   
      
   Fearing in his scathing resignation letter he'd have a never-ending   
   target on his back for violating "progressive orthodoxy," Ilya Shapiro   
   officially stepped down as Executive Director of the prestigious law   
   school's Center for the Constitution. He departs a place where he never   
   really got started without fond memories.   
      
   "Georgetown is not a place that values intellectual diversity, freedom   
   of speech, tolerance, respect, good faith," he told Fox News Digital on   
   Monday. "A place that excludes dissenting voices, that undermines equal   
   opportunity. It's not a place that anyone who dissents in any way from   
   prevailing orthodoxies can thrive."   
      
   He said the partnership with Georgetown would never have worked out,   
   even if he'd never sent the poorly received tweet criticizing President   
   Biden's pledge to choose a Black woman for the Supreme Court in   
   January. He'd hoped to pivot from his think tank work at the   
   libertarian-leaning Cato Institute to working with an educational   
   institution, but he said political intolerance made that impossible.
