- I don't have a strong sense of lawyer-trustees but lawyers as a class have been mostly quite strong standing up to Trump, whether in government, non-Supreme courts, or in lawsuits against the government.

It seems a mixed bag. Haar and Twining are solid. One may be skeptical of the two recent JDs although one at least has clerking experience and a Yale JD. The other, Gabel, doesn’t appear to have much credential for a seminar professor. Perhaps related, what do you think of the US News ranking of UM as 77?
Jessica Gabel is clerking for Judge Fay of the 11th Circuit, and Lindsay Harrison is clerking for Judge Gold of the S.D. Fla. and Judge Barkett of the 11th Circuit.
