Associate professor of law
and
Allan Axelrod Scholar (Conflict of Laws; Federal Courts; Property)
Professor Sclar earned her A.B., with distinction, from Stanford
University and her J.D. from the University of California at Berkeley
(Boalt Hall), where she was notes and comments editor of the Law Review
and a member of the Order of the Coif. Before joining the Rutgers
faculty, she practiced law with a firm in San Francisco and with a
federal government agency in Washington, D.C., and was an adjunct
professor at Georgetown University Law School. When not reading,
teaching or writing about the law, Professor Sclar often can be found in
her kitchen experimenting with yet another recipe and wondering how to
squeeze in more shelves to hold the latest additions to her collection
of over 600 cookbooks.
