The recent discussion reminded me of Justice Blackmun’s law school transcript, which I saw in Linda Greenhouse’s Becoming Justice Blackmun (p. 12). The grades of the future Supreme Court Justice, Harvard Law ’32:
-
2 As.
-
4 Bs.
-
8 Cs.
-
3 Ds.
But before folks start up with the snide comments, note that this put him just shy of the top 25% of the class (120th out of 451).
