Welcome Seval Yildirim To The Lounge

Yildirim_seval_whittierI'm very pleased to welcome Seval Yildirim to the Lounge for a visit.  Seval is an associate professor at Whitter Law School.  She holds a JD and LLM from NYU Law.  Her scholarship ranges focuses on international human rights, with a particular interest on issues of religion and sexual identities.  She is the current chair of the Islamic Law section of the AALS.  In a week, she will be heading to Turkey.  We're pleased that she'll be blogging about that experience, and related issues,  here at the Lounge.

    How does she feel about the employment prospects of her students at Whitter Law School? According to LST, the Non-Discounted Cost of WLS: $241,344.

    34.1% of graduates were known to be employed in long-term, full-time legal jobs.

    How do her students feel about her using her position to anti-Israel hate? On their dime.

    Fortunately, it is not up to students to decide what faculty are allowed to think.

    Al, thank you for the warm welcome.

    Unfortunately, its up to students to fund the faculty lifestyle that allows the faculty to think about things that provide no value to the student's reason for funding the faculty.
