Another episode in a long and sordid history of forcing Bryan Prillaman’s name into the title.

On this episode, we cover the Exemplar program in depth with its convenient leader, Bryan Prillaman! We talk about the history of the program and where it is today. We also spend some time discussing what a recommendation should look like, what makes a bad one, and what makes a good one.

We also learn that “exemplar” doesn’t really mean what we think it means. Whoops!

There was SO MUCH JUDGE NEWS this episode too. Here are some of the links:
