[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"But if it is a real relationship, she may be able to get mentorship and guidance from him that helps boost her career instead of just hurting it. And if they get married, then it's no problem - much different to marry your prof than date him."

Married or not, there will always be those who assume that the law professor influenced grades, awards, etc., for her. [/quote]

True, but marriage still legitimizes it. The dean of my Ivy law school had married a student, and one of the mos respected older female professors had married her professor! Plus the marriage to a prof itself will confer a kind of status that can make up for any effect on her reputation. I can see law firm partners finding her much more noteworthy for being married to a prof instead of to some jr associate or investment banker. [/quote]

I think the partners will also think less of her once they meet her husband and find out that he was a professor at her LS. Remember, the partners also went to LS and will think back how they felt about those students who hooked up with their professors.[/quote]

SO do not agree. Sounds ridiculous. [/quote]

Also disagree. Partners at law firms do not give a shit if their associates slept with or married their professors. (Except to the degree that the prof has some prestige, in which case he will be especially welcome at law firm events.)[/quote]
