Michigan got shut out of Kirkland Chicago last year. But, IIRC, did fairly well at other big Chicago firms. Kirkland must not like Michigan very much. Odd.

[Desert Fox]

Sixigan refers to the number of ke alumina it has.

[2014]

Oof way less UChi at Kirkland this year

I think Kirkland lost some Michigan offerees to other firms too...

How long is a summer-10 or 12 weeks?

[lhanvt13]

How long is a summer-10 or 12 weeks?

Depends on firm.
Ranges from 8-11 is most common I think

[DoveBodyWash]

How long is a summer-10 or 12 weeks?

i think most is 10. I know Skadden is 12 though

[lhanvt13]

yup.
In some smaller markets though, there may be a lot of biglaw satellite offices that do 8 weeks max.

So how is this compared to last year?? Bigger or smaller class?

[Anonymous User]

Larger class at least in NYC. STB has been doing very well......

[Mal Reynolds]

Very ominous anon......

[Old Gregg]

Good for the partners who work there? You'll get the same $10k first year bonus no matter what.

On a related note, LOL at Georgetown getting 12 and GW getting 1.

I noticed this....Why do they do this? Small office doesn't want to pay that last $6200?

So when do these start rolling out en masse?

[Old Gregg]

NALP requires that every firm provide this information by November 10, so right around then.

no idea, but for the firms I've heard of, they encourage splitting the summer 6+6 or 8+6.

Depends on the office. I worked for two firms in a secondary market , 6 weeks each (both of which offered 12 weeks). It's likely not a monetary thing. They can decide on hiring within ten weeks without having to make new projects and fill out evals (especially if they extend jobs to most of their SAs).

(Also, the pay may be lower but after taking into account the cost of living index, it's way more lucrative to be in those smaller makers. 130-140k in Atlanta, fur instance, is way way way ahead of 160 in NYC. The hard part is getting the SA and offer...)
