“Elena Kagan is an imaginative scholar, a gifted teacher, a public-spirited lawyer, and an energetic leader admired for her sound judgment and her capacity to inspire trust,” said Summers. [1]

Elena Kagan (born April 28, 1960) is the Solicitor General of the United States. [2]

Despite being a relative newcomer at the school, constitutional law expert Elena Kagan was seen by many as an obvious choice to replace Robert C. Clark as dean of Harvard Law School (HLS). [3]

President-elect Barack Obama has nominated Harvard Law School (HLS) Dean Elena Kagan as solicitor general. [4]

She clerked for Justice Thurgood Marshall, practiced at a Washington law firm, taught law at the University of Chicago (as did Obama) and worked in the Clinton White House. [5]

The former dean of Harvard Law School, Kagan has a distinguished resume that includes stints as a professor of constitutional and administrative law at both Harvard and Chicago and four years in the Clinton administration. [6]

Professor of Law Elena Kagan will be the next Dean of Harvard Law School, President Lawrence H. Summers announced today. [1]

Kagan, the Charles Hamilton Houston Professor of Law, is currently the 11th Dean of Harvard Law School. [7]

Kagan was formerly dean of Harvard Law School and Charles Hamilton Houston Professor of Law at Harvard University. [2]

A leading scholar of administrative law, Kagan has served on the faculties of both Harvard Law School and the University of Chicago Law School, in addition to holding senior legal and policy positions in the federal government. [1]

Details: She has won glowing praise from conservatives and liberals alike for her personal skills, judgment and legal acumen as dean since 2003. [5]

Her recent scholarship focuses primarily on the role of the President of the United States in formulating and influencing federal administrative and regulatory law. [1]

Kagan first came to Harvard Law School as a visiting professor in 1999 and became Professor of Law in 2001. [7]

Starting from as secure a foundation as any dean could hope for, I look forward to working with faculty, staff, and students to make the Law School greater still. [1]

Four years later, she became a tenured professor, and, in the same year, left the school to work in the Clinton administration, where she spent four years. [6]

All is not entirely well with the Oceanside Wellness gang as ABC’s Private Practice serves up its second season finale this Thursday at 10 pm/ET. [1]

Amy Brenneman spoke with TVGuide.com about where her complicated shrink has been and where she is about to go. [...] Last year Shonda and I were sitting around shooting the s–t - at the time, Addison was facing fertility issues, and Naomi already is a mom - and I said, “I would love it if Violet did not want to be a mother.” [2]

While it may not be as heart-stopping-ly exciting as the upcoming finale of its mother series Grey’s Anatomy, the Private Practice season finale promises to be rife with “events that will define their future” itself. [3]

As Addison fights her feelings for married dad-to-be Noah and one of their own “betrays” the practice, pregnant Violet is thrust to a genuinely shocking set of circumstances. [...] TVGuide.com: Tim Daly has grumbled that this storyline sent a confusing message, that most women would kill to have two great guys clamoring to be the father of their child. [2]

I told [series creator] Shonda [Rhimes], “Listen, I will do whatever you want to do, go as far out as you want me to go, as long as Violet can always have that moment of being self-aware.” [2]

Matt Mitovich reveals which episode readers thought had the biggest shocker. [5]

Now, it’s possible to watch the things before they happen and it doesn’t cost anything. [...] After realizing that her life isn’t advancing at Seattle Grace, Addison packs her bags and heads off to Santa Monica to start a new life. [3]
