You could call Yale Law students a lot of things, but until today, who would have thought that “self promotional” wasn’t one of them. Last month, Business Insider released a list of what it considers to be the “most impressive” undergraduate students at both Yale and Harvard Universities, and seemingly planned to do the same with Harvard and Yale Law Schools until Yale Law students denied this self promotional opportunity.  Editors at BI were surprised at this rejection, saying: “little did we know that this kind of ‘resume porn’ would prove so offensive to students at America’s best Law School.” There actually wasn’t one student who obliged, as most of the lucky few cited  YLS’s spirit of noncompetitive collaboration as the reason for their rejection.

Considering the prominence of and obsession over undergraduate “resume porn”,  who even knew non-participation was even an option? As an anonymous Facebook user put it: “Wish this had been the case for Yale College too. Kudos to Yale Law!”
