Feeder Schools

In the past, I have written about judges who act as feeders. By that, I mean that the judges' clerks end up going on to clerk for Supreme Court Justices. Over at the TaxProf Blog, there is a list of law schools that act as feeders. The list is full of the usual suspects...
* 1. Harvard (95 clerks)
* 2. Yale (70)
* 3. Chicago (45)
* 4. Columbia (27)
* 5. Stanford (26)
* 6. NYU (16)
* 6. Virginia (16)
* 8. Michigan (14)
* 9. Berkeley (10)
* 10. Texas (9)
There is also a list of schools that have gotten a few clerks to the Court in spite of not being one of the "big" schools...
* BYU (3)
* Georgia (2)
* Illinois (2)
* Kansas (2)
* North Carolina (2)
* Arizona (1)
* Boston College (1)
* Missouri-Columbia (1)
* Ohio State (1)
* Rutgers-Newark (1)
I don't know why I find this interesting.
