: PrawfsHiring Chairs 2008-09: Announce Yourselves!
By Dan Markel, Ethan Leib, Rick Garnett, Matt Bodie, Paul Horwitz , Steve Vladeck, and Orly Lobel
As is tradition here, it's time for law schools' appointments committees around the country to congregate here and share:
a) the name of the chair (s) of the committee
b) the law school
c) whether your school divides work between entry-levels and laterals, and if so, who's responsible for which segment
d) the names of other persons on the appointments committee(s)
e) any particular subject matter expertise you're focusing on
f) other information you think might be relevant.
