Speaking of Women -- UT Class of '93
Posted by Christine Hurt

Speaking of women, I found it great fun (and notable) to spend much of Friday night hanging out with Lyrissa Lidsky and Kristen Stilt at the AALS conference.  Lyrissa, Kristen and I were all 1993 graduates of the University of Texas (and friends there) and are, to our knowledge, the only three '93 grads teaching (according to Brian Leiter's list).  To completely turn on its head much of diversity theory, which I do not criticize, each of us had exactly one female law professor, Cindy Estlund.  Female law professors were few and far between there.  Just goes to show what wacky conclusions you can reach with a small set of data points, I guess!

:-) I had Estlund last semester, but started blogging three years earlier, so no correlation. Did she do law parodies of popular songs when you had her?

Yes she did, and I now carry on that tradition by singing to my class. I don't teach Property, so I can't steal most of her songs, but I sing one song that she sang at UT's Assault and Flattery to the tune of "The Boxer."
