  • I Get By With a Little Help from My Friends (in the Financial Aid Office)

    Unless you have been living in a cave for the past few years (feel free to write your personal statement about the experience if you have), you have probably read at least one of the several hundred articles, op-eds, and blog posts written about the implosion of the legal job market and law school "scam...

  • Welcome back!

    Greetings from New Haven! I hope all of you had relaxing and productive summers. School has started and our new class has settled in, which means it's time to kick off the admissions season. The school year started in usual fashion with a weeklong orientation for new students. The orientation schedule...

  • Let's Get This Party Started

    Greetings from New Haven! School has started, the new class has settled in, and we're busy with recruiting trips and webinars. Although it doesn't seem possible to us in the Admissions Office (weren't we just reviewing applications?), the new admissions season has started. Before we began...

  • Yale Law School's Top Vegetarian Chef

    I wrote a few years ago in my post, The $42,000 All-You-Can-Eat Buffet , about the abundance of free food at the Law School. Three years later everything I mentioned in the post, except the price, still holds true. To help illustrate the importance of free food at YLS, here's a clip from last year's...

  • Wintertime in New Haven

    January at the Law School is guaranteed to bring three things: quiet , applications, and snow . In fact, it's snowing as I write this post. I enjoy winter, but I realize it's not everyone's favorite time of year. For those of you uneasy about spending three years in a place with four seasons...

  • Legal Writing at YLS

    Recruiting season has come to an end and we're happy to be back in our offices reading applications and making offers. During a recap of this year's recruiting visits and webinars we realized we received quite a few questions about our legal writing program, so I'll use this week's blog...

  • Holy Odd Holdings, Batman! Comic Books Invade YLS

    While walking through the law library recently (I admit I was there for the extensive DVD collection) I discovered display cases filled with the type of books one does not expect to encounter in a typical law library. From a distance, I expected the cases filled with brightly colored material to house...

  • Welcome 2013 / Fall Housekeeping

    Greetings from New Haven! School has started, the new class has settled in, and we're busily booking recruiting trips, which means it's time to kick off the admissions season. The school year started with a week-long orientation for new students. The week was filled with lectures, picnics, a...

  • Justice Breyer

    There are so many incredible speakers and guest lecturers that pass through the doors of the Law School that I admit I have become slightly jaded to the prominence and import of the visitors. Should I go to the Arianna Huffington lecture or catch up on my email? Will I spend the evening at the Albie...

  • Acronym Overload: ISP, A2K, and A2K4

    In my blog posts I frequently make passing references to the numerous centers and programs at YLS. There are over twenty centers, programs, and workshops that focus on a wide range of subjects, from legal reform in China and legal topics in South America , to corporate and public interest law. These...
