I have good stats and plan to apply to Stanford, Harvard, Columbia, and NYU.
I took 30 credits at a community college before transferring to the University of Michigan. Will a LOR from a community college professor hurt my chances of getting into elite schools listed above? In other words, do top law schools look down upon LOR from community college professors?

I think they'd rather see a LOR from a CC prof who can truly attest to your academic potential than one from a UM professor who would write a more-generic one. Should be fine.
