Yep. Did his first year at Harvard.

No. But I did learn to read in law school.


I knew there was something I'd intended to do back then!

Touche, my brother. I was just jacking with you. Don't agree with your historical analysis, but its an arguable point at least.

Exactly how he is now. Just a little younger.

Never had him, but that was the impression I got.


I say Baier for Chancellor Emeritus.

You may not agree with me, but he was by far my favorite professor.

Baier is kind of like if Al Czervik from Caddyshack became a law professor.

Oh no, I don't disagree at all. I learned more from him and Coenen than any other profs at school by far.

That being said, Randy is a very strange human .

Any chance Ray Diamond throws his hat in the ring?


Weiss wasn't a civilian. Wanted to turn the law school toward the common law. Last time a Chancellor tried that and said publicly that the civil law was not much different from the common law he was quickly replaced. The civil law professors want to hold tight to the Civil law traditions. It is what make them different and important. Otherwise bring in the Harvard, Yale, and Stanford grads to teach the common law.

Randy is a very interesting guy. He can come off as odd. He really does have a very good heart.

I agree 100%. Dude just doesn't give a f*ck. Clearly he's getting old, but I never once doubted that he was one of the best professors there.

Second only to Carter obviously.

No doubt, and he's unfathomably brilliant.

Randy, Coenen, and Morris were the best. Carter is a terrible teacher, in my opinion. Baier should have been put out to pasture long ago.

Keith Hall is an absolute G.

Morris was great. Best contracts professor at the school. If you didn't have Morris you were hosed.

He was one of the guys shafted by Weiss when Weiss came in and pushed him out of his VC position and bumped him back to faculty.

What? He strikes me as a great practitioner. He is extremely smart. However, teaching is not his calling.
