[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having a JD in the tenured track hiring process should absolutely be something a committee considers, but think of it the way a college admissions committee views a rigorous extracurricular activity. If you attend a top 10 law school and had a prestigious clerkship they might count it as if you played a D1 sport. You still to have the required baseline qualifications (with some exceptions) but having that extracurricular JD will really make your application pop[/quote] The person that you describe will teach law at a law school and will make far more money than a similarly situated poli sci professor. They won't have to teach undergrads and they will have similar research expectations. [/quote]
