ATL March Madness: The Elite 8 Of Law School Scandals
Some awfully juicy scandals populate the Elite 8 of this tournament.
How important is it to vote in the ATL March Madness polls? A single vote decided one contest this round.
After the first round, I declared that “our readers love handjobs, blowjobs, and out-of-control deans.” Apparently that triggered a backlash because we lost all the handjobs, blowjobs, and half of the deans. So much for predictions.
With that we unveil the updated bracket. As usual, click on the image to get a closer view.

Polls for this round will close on Monday, March 28, at 11:59 p.m. Eastern. Now let’s check out these matchups:
1. Cam Girl — Cornell v. 6. Justice Scalia Prompts Law School Email Slap Fight — Georgetown
Perhaps a bit of recency bias at play in Georgetown’s big upset of the underwear models. Still, Cam Girl is the number one overall seed for a reason, meaning this could be the end of the line for Georgetown. I’m sure that will traumatize, hurt, shake, and anger those fragile professors.

5. Clerkship Grades Revealed — UVA v. 2. Anal Beads Professor — Drexel
Perhaps the grading snafu really was underseeded. I mean, it was a big screwup, but really who was shocked to see a bunch of wannabe clerks were doing well in school? Meanwhile, anal beads opened a can of whoop ass on… on second thought, forget I said ass.

1. Transcript Paper Thief — UVA v. 2. Self-Kidnapping? — Houston
UVA has the dubious honor of having two scandals still rolling through this tournament. If there’s one school that knows how to end up embarrassed on ATL, it’s UVA. They even wrote a song about it. But they’ve got stiff competition from the bizarre self-kidnapping.
What's The Better Law School Scandal?
- (2) Self-Kidnapping -- Houston (68%, 274 Votes)
- (1) Transcript Paper Thief -- UVA (32%, 129 Votes)
Total Voters: 403
4. Harassment Dean — Berkeley v. 2. Cooley is #2!!! — Thomas M. Cooley
The Alaburda case has come to an end, both in real life and in this competition, losing out by one vote to the recent story of Sujit Choudhry. Can’t this poor woman win anything?
Meanwhile, Cooley’s legendary delusion of grandeur made us say goodbye to the poetic stylings of former Case Western dean Larry Mitchell.

- (2) Cooley Is #2!!! -- Thomas M. Cooley (58%, 241 Votes)
- (4) Harassment Dean -- Berkeley (42%, 172 Votes)
