UNC Law School Courting John Edwards

POSTED: 9:41 am EST December 6, 2004

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. -- The law school at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is recruiting Senator John Edwards to teach there once he moves back to the state.

Law school Dean Gene Nichol says he sent a letter two weeks ago to Edwards and his wife, asking that they consider any association with the school. Nichol also asked Elizabeth Edwards to consider working with the law school in some capacity.

Nichol says both John and Elizabeth Edwards are graduates who have donated money and time.

Edwards and his family plan to move to Orange County, four miles from the campus. Until then, they will be living in Washington while Elizabeth Edwards completes a five-month treatment for breast cancer. Copyright 2004 by The Associated Press.

Well, that settles it. Now I am certainly applying to UNC's Law School. With professors like that, how can you be wrong? (Poor pun in title, by the way.)

Sounds like small claims courting, to me...

I wonder if he'll stand in front of his classes for 50 minutes in his "thumbs-up" pose.

Oh the shame of it.

An NC State graduate teaching at Carolina and in the law school to boot. The bluezone chill in Chapel Hill will be 3 degrees colder just because of his presence.

He's been neutered, he can't do any harm politically.

Do they have a "Chair of Ambulance Chasing" at UNC Law?

Agreed. If Smiling Johnny thinks he has a snowball's chance in Hades of ever getting the Dummycrap nomination, he is crazy ... although I admit that I would love to see a Clinton / Kerry / Gore / Edwards battle in ’08. Let the festivities begin!

Oh, he'll fit right in. 99 percent of the faculty at Chapel Hill are left-wing Dims. I believe one professor of chemistry is suspected of Republicanism; he seems to have some sense of reality.

The John Edwards Professorship of Junk Science, Corrupt Practices, Shameless Corruption, and Girlie-Man Hairdressing.

I ran into John Edwards in a bookstore in Arlington, VA last Saturday night. Doesn't look like he has gone back to North Carolina yet.
