- The head of Columbia Law School backed its graduates on Tuesday, saying they were"consistently sought out" as it responded to an announcement by 13 conservative federal judges that they would not hire students from the Ivy League university.
By contrast, the University of Chicago Law School, Yale Law School, and Stanford Law School each sent 20% or more of their 2023 graduates into federal clerkships. Columbia was 39th out of 195 U.S. law schools for the percentage of the graduating class that went into federal clerkships. U.S. Circuit Judge Jerry Smith, a colleague of Ho's on the 5th Circuit appointed by Republican former President Ronald Reagan, noted that so far only two of the approximately 170 active federal appeals court judges had announced plans to join the boycott.
"Some of those law students are likely Jewish and have been the subject of threats and harassment," said Crane, who was appointed by former President George W. Bush."I see no reason to punish them."
