And on November 18, The Circuit Rider 2 THE SEVENTH CIRCUIT COURT OF APPEALS GETS A New Chief Judge By Brian J. Paul* As of October 1, 2013, the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals has been under the leadership of a new chief judge — Diane P. Wood. Chief Judge Wood became the 13th circuit judge to hold the title at the Chicago-based federal appellate court, replacing her colleague, Judge Frank Easterbrook, who had held the position since November 2006. This got me wondering. How does one become a chief judge of a federal appellate court? And what are a chief judge’s duties? We’ll get to the answers to those questions in a moment, but first a little background about Chief Judge Wood. After graduating from the University of Texas at Austin School of Law in 1975, Wood clerked for Judge Irving Goldberg of the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, and then after that for Justice Harry Blackmun of the U.S. Supreme Court. She later worked briefly for the U.S. State Department on issues relating to international investment, antitrust, and technology transfers.

INTRODUCTION Almost every woman has had the experience of being trivialized, regarded as if she is just 'some dumb girl,' of whom few productive accomplishments can be expected. When viewed simply as 'some dumb girls,' women are treated dismissively, as if their thoughts or contributions are unlikely to be of value and are unworthy of consideration. 'Some Dumb Girl Syndrome' can arise in deeply personal spheres. A friend once described an instance of this phenomenon: When a hurricane threatened her coastal community, her husband, a military pilot, was ordered to fly his airplane to a base in the Midwest, far from the destructive reach of the impending storm.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF GENDER LAW JOURNALS: THE HERITAGE OF MYRA BRADWELL'S CHICAGO LEGAL NEWS RICHARD H CHUSED* In the front of the first issue of the Columbia Journal of Gender and Law published twelve years ago, the members of the staff inserted a brief statement of purpose.' Claiming that their "working job titles confer[red] no greater or lesser power, but serve[d] only to define primary responsibilities," they hoped "to publish legal and interdisciplinary writings on feminism and gender issues and to expand feminist jurisprudence., 2 For its moment in history, this was a fairly radical statement of purpose. Eschewing most aspects of hierarchy and viewing their primary audience as students and academics,3 the members aimed "to promote an expansive view of feminism embracing women and men of different colors, classes, sexual orientations, and cultures. ' 4 A brief comment by Ruth Bader Ginsburg followed immediately after the journal members' statement of purpose.5 She focused not on theoretical and philosophical questions, but on events preceding her rise to a position of power and authority.

FROM FALSE PATERNALISM TO FALSE EQUALITY: JUDICIAL ASSAULTS ON FEMINIST COMMUNITY, ILLINOIS 1869-1895 Frances Olsen* Feminist theorists seem to be obsessed by the question of whether women should emphasize their similarity to men or their differences from men. In discipline after discipline, the issue of sameness and dif­ ferences has come to center stage. This focus is not a new phenomenon. Early this century, suffrag­ ists fluctuated between claiming that it was important to let women vote because they were different from men - more sensitive to issues of world peace, the protection of children, and so forth - and claim­ ing that it was safe to let women vote because they would vote the same way men did.
