Over at the Voloch Conspiracy, David Bernstein, George Mason University School of Law, deplores a phenomenon I've also found deplorable, the obligation entry-level or junior legal historians sometimes feel to impail their research on the "hook" of "some sort of strained analogy to a modern constitutional controversy" in order to catch the interest of a hiring committee...

On Communism and its fallThomas DiLorenzo:My old friend Jim Bennett of George Mason University traveled in the Soviet bloc in the early 1980s on an Agency for International Development junket (because of his position as an adjunct scholar of the Heritage Foundation, which was closely linked to the Reagan administration). I can still recall what he said about the Soviet Union upon his...

Remember when I told you about Victoria's Secret's nationwide casting call? Well, the ballots are in, the top 10 finalists chosen. The lovelies include Alicia Hall (my favorite), a brown haired, blue eyed Las Vegas native and do-gooder; Jamie Lee Darley, a self-proclaimed tomboy and Bay Area native; and Catharina Lee, a reformed party girl who's currently studying communications at George Mason...

... that comprise their day job. Here we have Olivia Wilde (Thirteen from House) and Xander Berkeley (George Mason of 24) in roles that are far beneath them. Berkeley spends his time on screen gurning like a fool, while Wilde’s input is apparently to look sultry and put on a fairly poor English accent, or at least I think that’s what she was doing.

By the way, in this metaphor, the analogue to Sabathia and Teixeira is not necessarily the faculty (even though you probably think this song is about you). I am thinking more about students. Steinbrenner U has a much larger share of outstanding students than outstanding faculty....

Congratulations to VA’s new AG, Ken Cuccinelli who, to the best of my knowledge, becomes the first George Mason law school alumnus to be elected to state-wide office in Viriginia. He bested alumni of William & Mary and UVA in the primaries. GMU is a relatively young law school and this is a proud day [...]
