eveyrhting in malibu is about to be toast aside from that weird tadao ando concrete house kanye owned for a few years

Dkk

17:04

lmfao, true.

Pepperdine seems like a realllllly weird school, and I say that having applied

Dkk

17:09

I had a family friend who graduated valedictorian within the last 3 years and she said not to apply if you wanna know why I chose not to reapply this year.

[] CurvyHypnoticSheepdog

17:09

in what ways?

[] CurvyHypnoticSheepdog

17:10

I love the law school lore

info-man

17:13

the story of pepperdine's establishment is really interesting because it was founded essentially to provide the burgeoning evangelical movement with an intellectual infrastructure independent of secular higher education in the US

oakenrays

17:13

non-jesuit christian school in a wealthy enclave which shot up the rankings after getting a 50 million dollar donation from a real estate developer alum

Dkk

17:13

She said the staff their was incompetant and she felt her job opportunities sucked after graduating.

oakenrays

17:14

@info-man: kinda like Liberty U or GCU but more legit

texaslawhopefully

17:14

I do know they always get a few 5th circuit clerks, which probably is due to them becoming fairly conservative

[] CurvyHypnoticSheepdog

17:14

hm very interesting

Dkk

17:15

@texaslawhopefully: That's good info.

info-man

17:15

@oakenrays: yeah exactly. the choice of location is purposeful, too

Dkk

17:15

Texas, again, sorry about HLs.

Dkk

17:15

That sucks to see.

info-man

17:15

trying to find the book i read about it in because it's one i'd actually like to reread in light of the trump reelection

texaslawhopefully

17:15

No worries, I'm getting over it. If I get into UChicago that'd be fine with me

Dkk

17:16

Yeah Chicago is awesome. Hope you get that! I would love to sneak in there.

texaslawhopefully

17:16

It'd be similar for clerking, and I'm politically moderate enough where I'd be fine joining fedsoc and clerking for a conservative judge

Dkk

17:16

Nice!

oakenrays

17:17

@info-man: quest for distinction?

info-man

17:18

no, something else. i read it as part of a class on internal migrations in 20th century america. pepperdine's establishment is a product of the dust bowl because george pepperdine was a hardware magnate from kansas

info-man

17:18

ugh this is gonna bother the hell out of me

info-man

17:19

got it. darren dochuk, 'from bible belt to sun belt'

Gotta watch Rick Caruso get angry cus his investment in Pepperdine and real estate in that area is all gunna burn down: https://www.foxnews.com/us/rick-caruso-says-theres-no-water-fight-pacific-palisades-fire-absolute-mismanagement

Dkk

17:21

I would have loved to see what he would have done differently if he became mayor.

oakenrays

17:25

Caruso is such a freak. The lawyer I work for fought the guy for years to prevent him turning a piece of wetland habitat in the bay area into a strip mall

oakenrays

17:25

@info-man: oh nice, gonna add that to my list

info-man

17:25

yeah i would wager the fires would be worse if caruso were mayor
