A Cake Only A Law School Professor Could Love

Is this the greatest law school graduation cake ever?

Fine, maybe not just law professors, but there aren’t too many other people who embrace the totemic worship of professional ephemera quite like professors. And a gavel? Please. This is the sort of saccharine (literally in this case) nerdgasm that elicits eyerolls from the properly cynical members of the legal profession.

But Daniel Rodriguez of Northwestern has properly challenged us with this tweet of a law school graduation cake for the ages, so we must engage:

Talk about a salute to pure textualism.

The Northwestern cake, on the other hand shows some real effort. As someone who has watched Duff Goldman’s show on the Food Network twice, I feel fully qualified to deliver a review of this cake. Please deliver a slice to our offices posthaste.
