Just to make this crystal clear -- it is NOT the role of law schools to "produce" graduates of any particular ideological or methodological commitment.
And, I will add, that I imagine Ed would be absolutely outraged if he saw a liberal law professor say that she thought it was her job to convert law students to a particular ideology or methodology.
