If I were in charge of hiring for law schools it would look very different. There'd be lots of people with practical experience. But I'm not in charge and those that are never hire anyone with practical experience for tenure track jobs. The hire people that went to Yale or Harvard Law School, clerked for a Supreme Court justice, and preferably have a Phd in some allied field. Do you think this is the beginning of a new trend and from here forward they aren't going to hire like I outlined above? If we want to know if there was a finger on the scale, we need to look at how things work, not how we would wish them to work.
