Further to the post I wrote on the distribution of law professor twitter uses for Bridget's census of law faculty who tweet .... Bridget Crawford has released Version 2.0 of her census of law professors who use Twitter. It lists 204 professors by name, their Twitter name, and their school..
For the below analysis of the law schools where the professors are on the faculty, I excluded 13 professors – 12 who are at schools outside the United States and one who is at Irvine, which is not yet ranked by U.S. News.
Here are the schools that are home to at least 3 professors who use Twitter, together with summary data on the U.S. News ranks of their schools. Nebraska, by the way, has replaced Pace as the law school with the most users of Twitter.
