My, How Things Change
This post by Jack Balkin refers to this post by Orin Kerr about the rapid increase in law review citations to law-related blogs like the Volokh Conspiracy.
From Balkin’s post:
The legal academy is gradually becoming acclimated to blogs as vehicles of scholarship and scholarly quality. But perhaps even more important: Blogs are not displacing standard form legal scholarship; rather they are being assimilated into the larger universe of legal writing and becoming part of the web of citations and authorities along with cases, treatises, law review articles, and casebooks.
In this article, Duane Morris attorney Eric Sinrod promotes presidential to a proper adjective.

The Wall Street Journal has this interesting article about Pietro deVolpi, a 3L at American University who’s looking for a job. He’s still in school, but he’s got extensive legal experience (or so he claims).
