As she has previously done on behalf of writers and reporters, Article III Groupie hereby issues another UTR discovery request to her readership. Here it is:
My name is Adrianna Khoo and I am a reporter for a new legal magazine called Lawdragon. A3G has agreed to help me send out my plea for help on a fun little piece on the hottest clerkships. I’m trying to get comments on which judges are attracting the best graduating law students and why.
I’ve been having difficulty finding people to let me in on the gossip among their peers as to which clerkships are most coveted, but you don’t have to speak to where you sent your personal applications or even who you personally like the best. I’m just looking for fun tidbits from the general buzz and talk among peers on topics such as who are the renowned “feeder judges,” who treats clerks like their own children, who takes clerks snowboarding, or if it's true that a certain judge tells his clerks not to bring family to town because they won’t see the light of day, etc.
If you are a graduating law student, a clerk, young associate, firm hiring partner or anyone else who can help, please contact me at (213) 223-2433 or by email. Also, if you have landed your dream clerkship, I’d love to hear about your choice. You can view our publication at www.lawdragon.com. I would greatly appreciate any help.
The article that Ms. Khoo is working on sounds like it will be fascinating and fun. If you can provide assistance, please give her a call or shoot her an email. Reading news articles (and blog posts) is informative and enjoyable. But in order to make them possible, we all have to do our part to contribute to the pool of knowledge, by serving as sources when we possess valuable information.
By the way, thanks to everyone who responded, in comments and via email, to this plea for help from a UTR reader. A3G is pleased to report that the situation has been resolved in satisfactory fashion, thanks to excellent advice received from some of you. So pat yourselves on the back for a job well done!
