The legal philosopher Andrei Marmor at the University of Southern California will join the law and philosophy faculties at Cornell University as of July 1, 2015, while his wife, legal scholar Beth Garrett, the current Provost at USC, will become President of Cornell. That should put Cornell on the radar screen for prospective students thinking of a JD/PhD in philosophy. (The Cornell press release is here. Thanks to Rick Hasen for the pointer to that.)
I would note that there are a lot of structural reasons why senior staff might produce less research than people…
