More Departures from Academia to the Obama Administration: Lederman from Georgetown, Barron from Harvard

Details here.

UPDATE:  And it looks like Harvard's Einer Elhauge is on the way to Washington too!  That's on top of losing Elena Kagan, Cass Sunstein, and David Barron!

AND ANOTHER:  Georgetown takes another loss, with Neal Katyal joining Dean Kagan at the SG's office.  The good news, of course, is that appointments like Lederman and Katyal signal a return of the rule of law and an end to claims of executive power that transcend all legal limits.
