Legal Commentary

N.B. This will get bumped to the front every now and then.

It's that time again. I've been getting  requests from some aspiring prawfs, so here's the post: law school hiring chairs for entry and lateral candidates, please announce yourselves in the comments and please feel free to share who's on the committee and whether the search is limited in a particular way (or not).

To get things started, FSU has a softly bifurcated committee headed by Jim Rossi. Entry level:  Rob Atkinson (chair); Kelli Alces and Tara Grove. Laterals (which includes junior laterals) can contact JB Ruhl (chair), Jim Rossi, Fernando Teson or me. Our official notice appears after the jump. If there's any further or different information, I'll revise and inform readers.
