In my column from last week on "What Will Preet Bharara Do Next," I wrote, "The Harvard Law School deanship is available, or some other suitable academic perch could be found." Sure enough, today NYU Law School announced that Mr. Bharara will start as a "distinguished scholar in residence" starting April 1. The NYU Law press release carries, strangely enough, a quote from Mr. Bharara but none from anyone from NYU, whose law school, whatever its other merits, is able to move fast enough that it can grant someone an academic position in 10 days. That speed is unusual in academic hiring (or, for that matter, in anything else involving academia.)
