So, I guess the Illinois law faculty was just waiting for me to leave to start a blog! Congratulations on their new arrival, which promises to be very interesting and informative. The first post I read was definitely link-worthy. My friend and former colleague Rob Kar writes on another Urbana-Champaign development that I am out-of-the-loop regarding: the non-hiring of Steven Salaita. The Salaita affair has drawn a lot of writing from First Amendment/Academic Freedom quarters, but Rob analyzes it from a contract law perspective. Good reading!
UPDATE: In finally getting a chance to do some blog-browsing today, I notice that Dave Hoffman has also been thinking about the contracts angle to this case. Here and here and here.
