Harvard Beats Yale

Supreme Court clerks for the October term were publicly released today and Harvard Law leads the way with 10 alumni. Yale had 9. Cal, Penn and Georgetown are the only T14 schools with no alumni clerks in the fall. Ouch. The confirmed list of clerks is here. To hear Congressmen complain about Harvard and Yale's dominance, go here and scroll forward to about 48:00. Justice Thomas holds his own against an uninformed onslaught from a House Appropriations Subcommittee. It starts to get particularly uncomfortable around the 54 minute mark when Barbara Lee comes after Thomas on the lack of clerk diversity.
