Welcome Ray Campbell To The Lounge

We're very pleased to welcome Professor Ray Campbell to the Lounge.  Ray is an associate professor at Peking University School of Transnational Law in Shenzhen, China.  (You may Peking U. sought ABA accreditation back when Jeffrey Lehman was its dean.  Thus far, the ABA has been unwilling to bite.)  He received his JD from Virginia and clerked for Chief Justice Warren Burger.  He was also a partner at Kirkland & Ellis and Jenner & Block and CEO of HarmonyCentral.com, before moving to the academy.  He has published several pieces focusing on innovation and disruption in both law schools and the legal services industry and we're looking forward to his insights!

He ran a dating site? Is that a JD Advantage job? Further proof of the Versatile Degree theory?

Actually, the first site I ran sold musical instruments and recording gear over the internet, and we merged into what was then the largest content and community site for rock and roll musicians. The word harmony gets many people confused. The fact that I was a lawyer did help with getting funded, I think, but I had to unlearn a lot in order to actually manage a company.
