Why do you peoople care what schools a judge hired from? Get a life. Oh, and stop calling chambers, I'm sick of answering the friggin' phone every 5 minutes. Go bug the state court judges and leave us alone.
I fail to see how you got a clerkship with your attitude. I have the good fortune to be getting a circuit clerkship and will be delighted to answer the phone as needed. You seem to forget that you would have asked teh same questions last year at this time.
Best of luck to you, and please, for your own sake, hide the arrogance when you get to whatever firm you are going to - it won't play well even if you did have a circuit clerkship.
Re: "Why do you people care what schools a judge hired from?"
My take is that people who who didn't get hired want to be able to say either (a) "That judge only hires from schools that are ranked above mine, and that's why I didn't get a clerkship (the a**hole)" or (b) "At least he didn't hire from schools ranked lower than mine."
I think the curiosity about where judges hire from doesn't necessarily come from such self-affirming instincts. Rather, it's just an attempt to gather data so that one can assess whether one had targeted one's applications and expectations appropriately, and also to help future students from that school gauge their chances in subsequent cycles (to the extent such information is passed down from class to class at one's school).

Re: "Why do you people care what schools a judge hired from?"
My take is that people who who didn't get hired want to be able to say either (a) "That judge only hires from schools that are ranked above mine, and that's why I didn't get a clerkship (the a**hole)" or (b) "At least he didn't hire from schools ranked lower than mine."
Thoughts?
And Carnes and Anderson each hired at least one from Emory.
I'm not sure Fay is done. His secretary said he's in NC (and not reviewing applications) until October.
"Thoughts?"
I think the curiosity about where judges hire from doesn't necessarily come from such self-affirming instincts. Rather, it's just an attempt to gather data so that one can assess whether one had targeted one's applications and expectations appropriately, and also to help future students from that school gauge their chances in subsequent cycles (to the extent such information is passed down from class to class at one's school).
barkett expected to know by this thursday (tomorrow)
any news on barkett?
Anyone heard from Cox?
heard barkett didn't make a decision today because she was out of the office all day.
Cox was supposed to have had interviews through at least Wednesday (maybe beyond). I don't know that he's hired anyone, so may want to call chambers.
Is Barkett done?
i think barkett is down to a few but not sure she has made a decision.
so is it still true that Wilson has not even started yet?
Wilson has hired at least one, from Notre Dame.
Wilson also hired one (a grad) from Yale
any more updates on barkett?
wilson is done
Wilson should update his status in OSCAR to not accepting apps then (as should all othe rjudges, hint, hint to law clerks reading this site)
still nothing on barkett?!? has anyone spoken to her chambers recently?
Cox has hired. Does anyone know what schools he chose to hire from?
heard barkett still hasn't finished
Cox took one from AL
is Barkett still interviewing or is she just in final decision-making based on previous interviews?
