Any truth to the rumor Sidley (Chi) rescinded a popular tiktoker's summer offer? Forum

[Anonymous User]

From what I've heard from NW friends and read online, I don't think any of the accusations involved race.

If you actually had any northwestern friends you'd know that no one in NU uses NW

NU = Nebraska nerd.

Watch some sports loser.

What does sports have to do with it? I was calling someone out for making stuff up. Like if a non law student said "L1" does it really matter v 1L? No but they just showed themselves.

Dweeb alert

He was a mega douche, and I'm sure Sidley made the decision they did with good reason, but low key almost feel bad for this dude. Not sure what happened with JW. He deleted his tiktok weeks ago. Recently deleted instagram too.

Oh how the mighty have fallen. Truly there is nothing new under the sun.

Oh wow. I wonder if he was removed from video because he was removed from the class or if the firm is just trying to keep it quiet to avoid some apparently very angry people.

Also, sorry, does anyone actually know what this guy supposedly did? That's a pretty tough result to lose a Sidley offer (and potentially the JW offer too, I guess).

/gossiping, not witch hunting.

Check earlier in the thread, but tl;dr: sexual assault allegations

FYI I can confirm this guy is not working at JW

Where did the Sidley Chi rumor come from? FMU his offer was at the Sidley Dallas office, and this is the offer that was rescinded.

Nope. Go to school with him. He's told several people he was going to Sidley Chi. Have a friend going to Sidley Chi and he was on their incoming summer list for the Chicago office.

I have heard the same. My friends there said that he was briefly part of the summer class but didn’t know any details.

Curious. Anyone know where this guy is after being ousted from Sidley and Jackson Walker?

I realize this is the internet, and never going to happen, but maybe we should let this guy have some privacy. I certainly hope he was terminated on more than random internet accusations, but as none of us know the story (and given the current climate around accusations) maybe we just let it go.

Yeah, I was wondering how this thread doesn’t violate any mod rules? Seems like it’s beyond doxxy at this point.

I already called out the nasty behavior in this thread. They told me they’re just discussing/gossiping, that I must be the TikTok guy, and also that any criticism of their behavior is a “FedSoc Grievance Culture War.” Which is all pretty par for the course for the class of people who attend law school these days.

Not cool to look down on LLMs. But it is very nasty for folks to treat this guy’s life like it’s a tabloid

At least I’m capable of growth. I apologized to the LLM and stopped making fun of him. People are still dancing on the TikTok dude’s grave, though.

Some of it is kind of ghoulish. But I suspect at heart people wonder out of anxiety - what happens to someone in such a situation? What kind of behavior is going to screw you over, or for how long? Did he get unfairly canceled or did this process uncover something somewhere along the line that hadn’t come up before? I still think wanting to know what happened to him doesn’t have to be about wishing ill on him - a lot of people are on social media and probably wonder if it could backfire on them. If it could happen to him, could it happen to someone else? How to avoid it and how much would it fuck up your life?

But it’s true that unless someone points to something else public there’s not going to be any way to verify anything here, so I agree that letting it go is probably best.

(Though there’s also a long history of discussing stuff like this - no one seemed upset by discussing aquagirl or such.)

Guys, I am just going to say it: I really don't think that two major law firms would take the fairly unusual step of revoking a summer's offer based on "internet rumors," so this seems to be an indication that there is more to the story. Especially considering the fact that Jackson Walker did it after he had already started there, and no one will ever accuse JW of being overly "woke."

The "FedSoc Grievance Festival" comment was probably a cheap shot, but it does seem like some of TikTok guy's defenders are railing against strawman versions of Sidley and JW who rushed to pull this guy's offer based solely on internet comments. Something tells me that wasn't the case.

This. Also this thread has been mostly very respectful. No one has outed this individual by their social media handles or by their name. The initial speculation about him having lost his offer turned out to be true. How is wanting to know what happened to this person (re: job prospects) any different than the curiosity people on this board used to demonstrate when Above the Law wrote a story about a summer being no-offered? As for Res' comment about "growth," there is a huge difference between the comments you made about LLMs and someone posting in a thread asking about where an individual that had his offers rescinded from two big law firms ended up.

edit: Anonymous because I go to this individual's school and have made previous, more revealing posts in this thread, with similar language.

Continuing to beat the dead horse of the LLM comments is a “whatabout” with no plausible purpose other than to deflect from your anonymous, terrible behavior on this thread
