An article in USA Today quotes Lee Albert, professor of law on the Supreme Court nomination of Samuel A. Alito, Jr., who was a student of Albert's at Yale University. Albert said, "I would not have picked him out of a crowd as the one who is going to rise. He did not strike me as a student with that kind of ambition. He was too low-key for that. One of my other quite famous students was Hillary Clinton. You would have picked her out immediately as someone who was going places in a big hurry. He didn't have that kind of flamboyance or obvious aspiration." The article is not available online.
