Lee Bollinger’s Movin’ on Up

The Columbia president has been named chair of the New York Fed board of directors.
The Wall Street Journal doesn’t like that idea.
But given the recent New York State Court of Appeals decision to allow the use of eminent domain in Columbia’s expansion into Harlem, you’d have to say the Columbia president–who was passed over for the Harvard job in favor of Larry Summers—is on a roll.

fascinating (and very long) discussion of Elena Kagan’s academic career and tenure as dean of HLS here: http://www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2010/07/elena-kagan-barack-obama-and-the-american-establishment
Interesting stuff about Summers’s role, too. I’d be curious to hear reactions from people around here if the post strikes a chord, rings a bell, etc.
