      Chief Justice spent early years in Orchard Park /Buffalo area. We are pleased with his wisdom, and his experience. This is the same from other Justices with their own spin on topics, their experiences at. HLS and on US Supreme Court. Plus we see their human side, not stuffy but Professional.

The evolution of the school from its humble beginnings to its global impact is truly inspiring. The emphasis on the Socratic method and the importance of storytelling in law is something I'll definitely keep in mind as I continue my legal studies.

    I wonder if the Dean calculated how many Harvard grads were among our Founding Fathers? Of course, Harvard Law School had not yet been established, but Harvard University graduates were becoming lawyers under the system of those days. A good number of the signers of the Declaration were lawyers. I am the descendant of one of them, William Hooper from North Carolina. He graduated from Harvard, and against his father's wishes went into law, but to do so, he moved from Boston to North Carolina, established himself as a lawyer, and then was involved in work as a prosecutor, then as a legislator, including being a member of the First and Second Continental Congresses.

    Pierre Bourdieu wrote a nice book on the role of schools (Polytechnique, SciencesPo, HEC, ENA, ENS etc.) in manufacturing/monopolizing state/government elites in France titled The State Nobility, his analysis for the causes and consequences of this apply to the United States. The elite U.S schools continue to have disproportionate influence and representation in government, academia and industry for better or for worse.

    If I was younger, I would change my career to become an attorney or paralegal who works in constitutional law.
    I study it in my free time because it is so vast. I use history, philosophy, law work together to find that law is the action, philosophy is the reason, and history tells the story of how policy becomes alive and is affected by it.
    I agree with Scalia's philosophy about the Constitution, but I also see how it can be applied as a living document to understand the reason for something and why it is argued from many different sides and not just one position. There is tons of gray in the world.

    It’s incredible how Roberts just cracks a joke about the number of SCOTUS justices who are Harvard alumni. His remark about the missing justices is probably about those from Yale, not Gorsuch. Ha ha it’s funny that the supreme civil court of an entire country is packed with graduates from a single region. Tbf, he’s probably not used to video broadcast, so to him the only audience is the privileged crowd in front of him. But Alito and then Trump’s picks have really hidden what a shitheel Roberts is.

      I don't think race or ethnicity makes much difference as far as diversity goes. Intellectual and class diversity is much more impactful than any superficial racial differences. I would say Justice Thomas is the most diverse, not at all because of race, but because of how strikingly unique his upbringing was being raised by his barely literate grandparents in impoverished Georgia, and his stint in seminary school.
