Guest Blogger: Erin Kaheny

This week's guest blogger is Erin Kaheny, Assistant Professor of Political Science at Wisconsin-Milwaukee.  Her research interests include federal appellate court decision making, procedural rules of access to the legal system, judicial careers and acclimation effects, divided government and judicial selection, agenda change in the U.S. Courts of Appeals, and comparative judicial studies.  Recently, her paper draft entitled Have We Come a Long Way Baby: Female Attorneys before the United States Supreme Court has garnered much attention by both blogs and the media (perhaps she'll discuss this).
