[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nope, the US makes sure a lot of leaders come out of Yale. As for Yale Law, the Supreme Court almost exclusively takes clerks from Yale and it seems like you have to go to Yale if you want a tenured faculty position in any top 100 law school. [/quote]

Totally untrue re Supreme Court. Harvard supplies a lot of clerks too, and there are at least two justices who claim they refuse to hire from either law school.

It is true that YLS prides itself on churning out law professors and a significant number of students who go there, arrive intending to teach law. (Which is bizarre to me and one reason I did not enjoy my time at YLS - I wanted to be a practicing lawyer and had, and have, no political aspirations or connections.)[/quote]

You seem boring. [/quote]

In this poster defense, lawyers are excruciatingly boring whatever they went to law school.  [/quote]

They are both risk averse and conflict oriented (i.e. we like conflict). Lawyers are typically mixed up and happily oblivious or morally ambiguous. I am just talking about myself and my ex.

I am no longer in the field but now I mostly don’t like lawyers in personal settings. [/quote]
