I spent yesterday evening at a dinner for alumni of the Journal of Law & Inequality. I was hoping to run into some of my friends and colleagues from back in the day, but no such luck. Most of the people in attendance were either current Journal staffers or recent graduates; I felt like that aging dork who goes back to his high school for homecoming weekend. The people at my table were all exceedingly bright and driven. The woman sitting to my right spoke enthusiastically about her sixteen-hour days at a major local firm where she works on commercial real estate deals. It’s a good thing that there are people like her in the world because global industry would surely collapse if people like me were left in charge of stuff like that.
