Law clerk hiring practices Twenty-five of Kavanaugh's 48 law clerks have been women, and 13 people of color.[149] Some have been children of other judges and high-profile legal figures, including Clayton Kozinski (son of former federal Judge Alex Kozinski), Porter Wilkinson (daughter of Judge J. Harvie Wilkinson III), Philip Alito (son of Justice Samuel Alito), Sophia Chua-Rubenfeld (daughter of Yale Law professors Amy Chua and Jed Rubenfeld), and Emily Chertoff (daughter of former DHS secretary Michael Chertoff).[150][151] On September 20, 2018, The Guardian reported that two Yale professors had advised female law students at Yale that their physical appearance and femininity could play a role in securing a clerkship with Kavanaugh. Rubenfeld said that Kavanaugh "hires women with a certain look" but did not say what that "look" was.[152] Unnamed sources reported that Chua said that female applicants should exude "model-like" femininity and "dress outgoing" in job interviews with Kavanaugh. Responding to the report, Chua denied that Kavanaugh's hiring decisions were affected by female applicants' attractiveness, saying, "Judge Kavanaugh's first and only litmus test in hiring has been excellence."[152] Yale Law School Dean Heather Gerken announced an investigation of the matter,[153] but Yale did not find any cause for sanction. Chua returned to regular teaching in 2019.[154]
Brilliant book. I wish I had this type of training when I was a kid. Now it is too late for me. However, minorities and proletarians of the next generation can definitely learn from this great book. A great book. A great education.
You've got the crème de la crème batch of students coming to Yale. You can't expect everyone to think and behave all in the same way. It's not like here at NUS or NTU. It's an absolutely different kind of atmosphere.
Fresh from World Economic Forum Davos 2022 Australian eSafety Rep Julie Grant speaks at the WEF Forum... "We need a Recalibration of Freedom of Speech" What does Amy Chua says ?
As a person of Yale background, she should know better than to suggest in any way that America is “anti-Muslim” or “anti-immigration.” She is either ignorant (a Yale grad?) or willfully toeing the party and ruling class line.
what's with all the facial ticks? She tries too hard and problem with try hard is they start looking desperate and soft headed. It's height of tolerance, Amy :) Not tolerant. It's endless self promotion..
The only thing is...to me, she really looks like an unhappy person in general. So it's hard to accept her advice on what the "right way" is in many instances.

What an insight, thank you Amy!
Her book “World on Fire” seemed much more important. But I can see how the other ones grabbed more attention.
I love Amy Chua for her wise and clear ideas on what's going on in the USA😎
this was a great interview

What does Amy Chua says ?
Most political event are reality entertainment...if you think deeper... even wars!
They're tense and miserable because of parents like you, Amy
No! They’re becoming transgenders because of parents like you.
Think deep hard about Shakespeare; whom when what why now foreshadow
Ladies & gentlemen, the real-life Joanna Lannister.
She is so so beautiful and convincant like the vice- president of European Parlement Eva Kailli !!!!!!👈✍️✍️✍️✍️
A classic banana.
Yellow on the outside, but on the inside...

This woman doesn't have a clue about world history or current affairs for that matter. She should stick to discussing legal topics.
She loves the word “elite”.. also people are anti-illegal immigration. She really loves to live in nuances
cos she wants to be an elite so much :) it's a yawn
when talking about rural people, try not to snarl. Thanx
