“Few law school graduates go directly into private practice or prominent positions at major firms immediately after finishing school. Many take positions as clerks with established judges.”
Just the opposite: Nearly all law school grads who take a law position after law school go into private practice or public sector law. Very few get the coveted law clerk positions.
“anyone who joins the Columbia University community—whether as undergraduates or as law students—beginning with the entering class of 2024“
Why not go after the ones who are there now?

Have you ever noticed how very few American born people, with good old 'all-American' names like Joe Smith or Jane Jones... Or even names like Horace Rockefeller or Milton Carnegie, are at the helm of American institutions, businesses, or bureaucracies anymore?
Why not specifically target the left-leaning law students? The conservative ones shouldn’t suffer from this.
RE: Why not specifically target the left-leaning law students? The conservative ones shouldn’t suffer from this.
That’s what I was thinking too. You don’t assume that EVERY SINGLE LAW STUDENT from Columbia are left-leaning.
Heck, Columbia has over 30,000 students.
Only a few hundred of them were in that protest and even then: 1) Not every one of those in the protest were real Columbia students; 2) Not every Columbia student who joined the protest were LAW students.
You don’t punish the majority of those law students who did not participate in the protest for the idiocy of the tiny minority.
Good, all of these schools, their administration, faculty, and students should realize and face the consequences of their actions. Let them all go get jobs as public defenders.
Collective punishment of people with no connection to any of this is un-American and unethical.
and the RATS take another one in the.........HA ha!!!
Conservative students are affected by this stupid shotgun reaction.
The professors at that school had a large role in the riots. They were ringleaders up on the podium making statements.
If the teachers are like that, if the school tolerates such teachers, it’s a safe bet that their students are getting a poor education.
Totally rational.
Nope. Professors were leading it. If the school tolerates such instructors in the classroom, why would you want a student from there? There are too many other options that turn out better lawyers.
Very rational.
So what? Why would a conservative kid go to a libtard place like Columbia in New York City?
They must not be too “conservative”.
Twelve judges out of over 700.

Check out what happened at UNC, professors withholding grades from all finals until any suspended protestors a reinstated.
I am skeptical.
All over the country the 90% of the lawyers have been to woke law schools, rewarded for sniping at conservatives, rewarded with jobs as Dems. The lawyers are the source of judges, who are usually long term leftists.
A few-——a few-——conservative lawyers and judges are around. They’ll soon be gone if we lose in November, 2024.
Good point.
And the left-leaning ones are somewhat less mentally competent anyway.
I stopped hiring from Ivy League schools over 10 years ago. Their brains can absorb an awful lot of information, but they cannot develop their own thoughts and execute on them. San that for 200000 you learn to memorize a textbook.
