President sexton earned his ba in history and his ma and phd in religion, and taught religion in brooklyn before he went to harvard law school. He went to harvard law school, graduating 1979 magna cum laude, and was the Supreme Court editor of the harvard law review. He then clerked for judge basil on and judge leventhal on the d. C.

The law school is firmly ensconced in the rankings as one of the top five in the country. By 2002, he had been elevated to presiden
