I’m going to be honest here, I don’t particularly care for birds. I’m not an avian enthusiast with binoculars at the ready, trekking into the woods looking for some elusive fowl. And yet, the legal education beat continues to drag me into bird territory. More specifically, the intersection between law schools, birds, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and puns.
It all started last year when I penned this story about a contest to name two Osprey chicks that had hatched in a nest above the University of Oregon School of Law. (The chicks’ progress was chronicled via webcam.) A public vote resulted in two winning names: Ruth Bader Ginsbird and Sandra Day O’Sprey after…well, you know who.
