We all know that NLSIU has produced real superstars: judges, senior advocates and an ASG, a QC, partners of Magic Circle law firms, professors at Oxford, people in the Time 100 list, what not. But what about NALSAR, NUJS, NLUJ and NLIU, which must all be 20+ years old now and have alumni in their 40s? Who are their most illustrious alumni? Could anyone reach similar heights in the next 10 years?
There are tons of current/future superstars from Nalsar in many different professions. But for now let me name only a few women in academics abroad, because:
a) it shows the gender diversity compared to other NLUs, which are mostly male-centric (other than NLSIU) b) it shows the ability of Nalsar alumni to look beyond firm careers in law firms, compared to other NLUs (except NLSIU) c) it shows the world-class quality of these alumni, who have been hired by universities abroad despite having undergrad degrees from India
- Shreya Atrey: Associate Professor at Oxford
- Akshaya Kamalnath: Senior Lecturer at prestigious ANU in Australia
- Swethaa S. Ballakrishnen: Assistant Professor at UC Irvine
