This is probably just law professor nerdery, but if Presidents get to push for a Supreme Court nominee based on where the nominee went to law school, it seems only fair to also release the nominee's transcript.
As far as I know, we have only one Justice's transcript: Kagan's, with an "issued to student" stamped on it.

We also know the public honors at graduation for the Harvard grads. Roberts, Kagan, & Breyer graduated "magna cum laude," which I think varied at the time but was sorta the top 10 or 15% of the class. Justice Gorsuch graduated "cum laude," the next level.
(And no, a Senator shouldn't care about any of this. As I said, it's just law professor nerdery in light of Presidents apparently using JD schools as a selling point decades later, which they shouldn't.)
