As we mentioned last week, U.C. Berkeley's Boalt Hall School of Law hired a brand consulting firm to come up with a new name for the school. The effort ended somewhat anticlimactically. Boalt paid $25,000 to Marshall Strategy Inc., which came up with this brilliant new moniker: "UC Berkeley School of Law."

Oh well. But since we already took the time to read through hundreds of suggested new names for Boalt Hall, we're going to conduct this reader poll anyway.

Cast your vote, after the jump.

Okay, so the folks over at TMZ.com don't chase them around yet. But here at ATL, we adore legal celebrities -- and invite you to send in your encounters with them, for our Eyes of the Law sightings column.

Last Friday, for lovers of legal boldface names from the left or the right, William & Mary School of Law was the place to be:

William and Mary Law School (and the College) had a series of speakers of today, all wedged into a very tight schedule. They included:

At noon, former Dean of UC Irvine School of Law Erwin Chemerinsky. Unfortunately, I didn't go to his talk, so I can't say whether he talked about the controversy.

At 1 PM, UC Berkley professor (and evil incarnate if you believe some blogs) John Yoo spoke. Yoo said in his introduction that he was being "wedged in" between "the former Dean of UC Irvine" and Stuart Taylor, who was speaking at 2 on his book on the Duke rape case, "Until Proven Innocent."

We also had a panel on Saturday on "Judicial Modesty," which included such leading lights as Dahlia Lithwick, Michael McConnell, Carter Phillips and Jeffrey Rosen. See here (PDF).

Quite the weekend for legal geeks! (Er. You know. If I was one of them).

Although this tipster wasn't at the Chemerinsky talk, other ATL readers were. Check out this video, posted on the blog of the W&M chapter of the American Constitution Society. Isn't Chemerinsky adorable?
