Markets in Dersh

I guess Harvard Law School's $35,000/year tuition is a bargain after all. That would pay for one public appearance by Alan Dershowitz. As a 1L, I had three Dershowitz appearances per week for thirteen weeks. That's $1,365,000 worth of Dersh! And for the low price of $70, I bought some hornbooks to actually learn criminal law!

No wonder the law school had to restrict the number of times professors could cancel class. (I heard that before this rule was in place, Dersh and other profs went AWOL for TV on a regular basis, for obvious reasons.)
