[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I don think the same analysis works with all professions. [b]For many lawyers, deciding to go into academia full time tenure track then tenured IS mommy tracking.[/b] The academic life is itself the family/work balance. I know many professors, including family members , who have always been academics and who have switched over later, and it's generally been a terrific, family-friendly choice. I can see why universities haven't found the need to provide even more work-life balance options. Law school tenure is generally easier than other kinds of tenure. But I still don't think there are many (if any) profs on tenure track who can take years off, then jump back in effectively. [/quote] Still very difficult to come by tenure-track law school positions. There are clinical professors, and in DC many, many adjuncts, but very few tenure-track professors of law.[/quote]
