[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the bread and butter of law professors is to publish, attend panels, be a thinking, and it's not all about teaching; so be ready for that. Most of the professors that made the jump from Biglaw to academia had a niche area to start with, e.g., native Indian law, international financial institutions, environmental law. What credential in term of niche do you have to speak of? I guess you need to identify that first, then pick a school that's looking for that niche. [/quote] Was going to say the same thing. We're always looking for people who know the cutting edge stuff about intellectual property as it relates to internet, social media, etc. That would be the sort of niche you might develop through your work in practice, but then you would also have to be writing and thinking and engaging with the academic debates in the field.
