to my former student Jonathan Bond, George Washington University Law School Class of 2008, who recently accepted a clerkship with Justice Scalia for the October Term 2009. Pardon my kvelling, but Jonathan will be the fifth George Washington University Law School graduate to clerk for the Supreme Court in the last six years. (The current Acting Solicitor General, Greg Garre, is also a GW Law graduate and a former Supreme Court clerk.) Finally, if Wikipedia is correct, Jonathan will be joined in the Scalia chambers by another former student of mine, Daniel Sullivan, who I taught when I was visiting at Chicago. Congrats to both of them!
