This morning I received an e-mail from something called FacultyONLINE offering, inter alia, services such as textbook and teaching material searches. I am VERY disturbed by the fact that printed right in the message is my ALSB username and password that I am suppose to use to log in to their web site. ALSB is not mentioned, but ALSB is the only log in that I use that particular combination for. How did they get it? I have never heard of this organization--are they associated with ALSB in anyway? Has anyone received such an e-mail?

Subject: Re: ALSB response to journal rankings issue
Elliott's attachment references the attached document on law review scholarship that Tom Dunfee and I wrote a few years ago. We prepared this document in the hope that it would be useful to ALSB members faced with explaining law reviews to tenure committees. One of the takeaways (although in retrospect, this should have been stated more forcefully) is that it is futile to prepare journal rankings in our field, given the small percentage of law review print that is devoted to business law research. We note, for instance, that "it takes the equivalent of at least 160 law reviews to provide publishing opportunities equivalent to ... three Finance journals."
Please feel free to discuss and revise the attachment if the roundtable discussion takes place in Denver.

This is a good idea and I would like to participate. Some years back, in response to mounting "pressures", relating to this subject, we developed a Department Policy on Research and Publication, a copy of which is attached hereto.

Subject: ALSB response to journal rankings issue
Lucien has suggested to the Exec Comm that he chair a roundatable discussion in Denver on this issue of journal rankings. The title would be "Resolved: The ALSB Should Establish Legal Research Standards."
Comments? Suggestions? Ideas?
