Insane that they were released on bond given the continued rioting.

Why do people post this stupid shit. Clearly Stanford grads are going to venture capital and tech right out the gate.

lol ah yes, all those VC and tech folks just LOVE having fresh, no-experience law students at their "move fast / break things" firms

Harvard - 74.1% (+1.4%) Columbia - 84.0% (+2.0%) Virginia - 78.3% (-5.0%) UCLA - 51.4% (+3.0%) WUSTL - 52.3% (+0.1%) Florida - 24.2% (+7.3%) Washington & Lee - 35.5% (+9.8%) Barring a surprise off the top rope from NYU or Northwestern, I believe we're able to crown Columbia as the elite employment ...

SLS takes a lead over YLS in the clerking numbers this year! Also LOL@ their defensive-sounding specificity w/ the JD-Advantage jobs... "THESE ARE THE COOL ONES, NOT THE LAME ONES GUYS!!!" In all seriousness, those are quite impressive JD-advantage gigs though! Harvard continues to lag Chicago on c...

I've heard that it's done by a type of "nomination" process at some firms where if a partner wants you gone, and no one objects, you gone.

Develop such a deeply understated layer of irony in your speech patterns that no one can ever tell if you're expressing a sincere belief in the first place.

No really though, uniform use of light irony has saved my butt so many times

Article: https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/03/business/jones-day-pregnancy-discrimination.html Thoughts? The allegations in the complaint are pretty terrible. It's been pretty clear for a long time now that the Jones Day "black box" is just an excuse for below-market compensation, and likely other arb...

Don't know if you've considered Dallas/Houston but last year I had a couple friends who had some luck doing 3L OCI in those markets after not liking life in NY. There is some opportunity and I get the feeling that Houston has become less "ties-conscious" than before. K&E/LL/V&E have been expanding a...

Well it looks like there isn’t “stratification,” just 2 firms being booted from the market paying club. GT and RS joining the ranks of sub-market biglaw like Bryan Cave. Not everyone else that was paying the old scale has matched yet though. Tru: https://abovethelaw.com/2018/06/by-any-metric-these-...
