New York Times: “The closed-door ‘training academy’ was aimed at a select group: recent law school graduates who had secured prestigious clerkships with federal judges. It was organized by the Heritage Foundation, a conservative group that has played a leading role in moving the courts to the right, and it had some unusual requirements.”
“‘Generous donors,’ the application materials said, were making ‘a significant financial investment in each and every attendee.’ In exchange, the future law clerks would be required to promise to keep the program’s teaching materials secret and pledge not to use what they learned ‘for any purpose contrary to the mission or interest of the Heritage Foundation.'”
