If they won’t release the transcript, how did they find out? My guess is that its all been doctored by now to show he was a straight A student. BTW—he was editor in chief of the Harvard Law Review and never wrote a single article for it.
The Editor in Chief of the Harvard Law Review never writes any articles for it. The Harvard Law Review, like all law schhols' law reviewes, is edited by students, but the articles are all written by law professors, not students.
He was not editor in chief, he was president of the Harvard Law Review.
They didn't. If you read the article, Ms. Rubin merely speculates that he got C's and D's, on the theory that they'd have released his transcripts if he'd done better.
It's BS.
He must have gotten some A's at Harvard Law to get honors, and while he may well have been a C-student at Columbia. It's the overreaching -- "all C's and D's" -- that makes one suspicious. Surely in one class or another he must have pulled down a B. Not even at Occidental?
BTWhe was editor in chief of the Harvard Law Review and never wrote a single article for it.
May not be true. There is an anonymous six page case note that's been attributed to him. Exclusive: Obama's lost law review article.
With all the googling, it's surprising that article slipped from memory. But it's an iffy thing: either his people were lying when they said he didn't write any articles or lying when they hinted that he did.
Somebody who has time on their hands might check out the case note and other anonymous articles from his time on the review for signs of authorship or stylistic confirmation that he wrote nothing.
Seeing as Kagan was Dean of Harvard Law, that is not beyond the realm of possibility.
