We looked at where partners and associates at the top five litigation boutiques for 2012 according to Vault earned their law degree. We limited the study only to those who earned the degree since the year 2000. The firms studied were Susman Godfrey (headquartered in Houston, but with offices nationally); Keker & Van Nest (San Francisco); Bartlit Beck (Chicago); Kellogg Huber (Washington, DC); and Morvillo, Abramowitz (New York). These firms tend to be the most selective legal employers in the nation, and set the standard for compensation for attorneys as well.
The first chart ranks the schools by a kind of “per capita” measure (the total number of attorneys at these boutique firms divided by the size of the recent graduating class, rounded to the nearest 25); the second chart ranks the schools by the total number of alumni at these firms. The remaining charts show the representation of each school at each of the five firms.

no one's denying u of c is a good school, but this kind of trolling is so fucking inane and pointless - the question is, WHY THE FUCK does a professor with an endowed chair at the u of c care so goddamn much?

Leiter is a weird guy. Honestly, I ask the same question everyday. Why would anyone care so much about law school ranking?
Why would anyone go out of his way (unless you are in the publication business like USNWR which Leiter clearly is not engaged in) to rank schools in such a way?
"The most aspie profs per aspie students ratio ranking"...Leiter is a weirdo!

i like how leiter goes looking for things that will rank chicago and texas highly. i'm surprised that he didn't think of this earlier, when the #1 lit boutique in the country is in texas, and #2 is in chicago.
