Supreme Court Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh will beat the Washington heat this summer and head for Runnymede, England, a bucolic borough 20 miles from London along the River Thames.
At the site where the Magna Carta was sealed 804 years ago, laying the groundwork for constitutional democracy, the judge will teach a course on the origins of the U.S. Constitution to students at George Mason Universitys Antonin Scalia Law School 3,600 miles from the Arlington, Va., campus.
He will be joined in the English countryside by Jennifer Mascott, an assistant professor of law at George Mason. One of Kavanaughs former clerks on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, Mascott came to his defense when his nomination was threatened last year by allegations of sexual misconduct, which he vehemently denied. He has acted with the utmost character and integrity, she told PBS NewsHour.
Some students at the universitys main campus in Fairfax City see matters differently. After news of his hire surfaced at the end of March in the undergraduate newspaper, the Fourth Estate, survivors of sexual assault mobilized to demand that he be terminated.

But he'll provide free beer bongs to the local pub.
