NYU's schtick isn't exclusive of feeding to BigLaw, clerkships, or highly selective government positions like Justice. Law School Numbers reports type of employment for 2013 with 64% law firms and 15% public interest. That is a lot of public interest, but it is still (traditionally) the highest-ranked school in the nation's largest market for private legal services. Michigan's numbers, to give another data point in the 14, are 56%/13% for the same period.
People are still hired for public interest work out of law school. My impression is that the number, overall, is very low, and that it always has been.
