Is it because it's weird and unique and there isn't much law out there? EXPLAIN

Every Sup. Ct. needs clerks.

What makes you think it's "all the rage"?

There's an inordinate amount of AK trolling on here, TLS, and in general. While it might only be a small % of clerkship posts, it's 1000% more than you see for other obscure states (Oklahoma SUP CT HERE I COME!)

you realize that the AK justices go on tour and visit top law schools to personally recruit, right?

This is the first time I've ever seen the Alaska Sup. Ct. mentioned here.

Alaska is cool for people who like nature. It's an adventure (like Guam!).

AK clerkships are constantly filled by hys.

the judges go around trolling. its an easy year with useful experience but has taken on a certain badge of coolness and clubbiness

Outside of the impossible to get major metro city areas, Alaska seems like a credited place to go. People take clerkships in cities all the time with nothing to do. At least Alaska has beauty all around with nothing to do, rather than meth and paint huffers with nothing to do.

much like TFA, it became super prestigious and selective because high quality applicants started applying to it

what are the next ten words of that statement? give me the next ten words and I'll drop out now

every once in a while, every ONCE in a while ...

no, but seriously, TFA is prestigious because of the # of apps but also because it helps people and shows a skill set

what does AK do
