...ripples created by Harvard have contributed in part to the “enormous increase” in movements between law schools, according to Chicago Law School Dean Saul Levmore. He noted that the movement at Yale, which is reported to see the departure of five to eight professors this year, “would have been unheard of five years ago.” Of the six professors who left Yale last year, three came to Harvard—an unusually high number, according to Leiter.
