Becoming a Law Professor

University of Virginia School of Law professors Deena Hurwitz, John Duffy, Risa Goluboff and Kerry Abrams speak to students during an Oct. 1, 2012, panel discussion about the attributes candidates need to become law professors in today's market.

Thank you for the informative video. Ironically, when I visited an admissions panel, I was told by Jason Dugas, Director of Admissions, that UVA does NOT encourage its students to become academics. I was told that if I expressed my interest in academia on my application, I would likely be rejected because I would be a misfit even though my academic and extracurricular profile otherwise matched or exceed accepted ranges. He told me to apply to Harvard and Yale instead.

How to Become a Law Professor on the Learn Law Better channel has my take on things in the comment section. If you're considering a law career of any kind you might give it a quick read.
