                             KOH NOMINATION

  Mr. SPECTER. Mr. President, I have sought recognition to speak on 
behalf of Dean Harold Koh, dean of the Yale Law School, for 
confirmation to the position of Legal Adviser to the Department of 
State. I know Dean Koh personally. I have known him for more than a 
decade while he has taught at Yale and been the dean of the Yale Law 
School. He spoke at a class reunion. I was in the Yale Law School class 
of 1956 and hosted a reunion here in the Capitol on June 6, 2008. He 
was greeted by a number of prominent Members of the Senate at that 
time. I make these comments about my personal association with him in 
the interest of full disclosure, but the thrust of my recommendation is 
based upon his extraordinary record.
  Harold Koh graduated from Harvard College, also Harvard Law School. 
He graduated Harvard College summa cum laude in 1975. He was Marshall 
Scholar at Oxford University, where he got a master's degree in 1977. 
He graduated cum laude from the Harvard Law School in 1980, where he 
was developments editor of the Harvard Law Review. He then clerked for 
Judge Richard Wilkey in the Court of Appeals for the District of 
Columbia, then for Supreme Court Justice Harry Blackmun. He then worked 
as a lawyer with the distinguished Washington firm Covington & Burling 
and then as Attorney-Adviser in the Department of Justice's Office of 
Legal Counsel. He then served in the Clinton administration as 
Assistant Secretary of State, was unanimously confirmed by the Senate, 
and served there from 1998 to 2001 when he returned to the Yale Law 
School, becoming its dean some 5 years ago.
  He comes from a very distinguished family. His father was the first 
Korean lawyer to study in the United States. He attended Harvard Law in 
1949. He was then counsel for--the father, that is--for the first 
Korean democratic government. When a military coup occurred, he left 
that position. He was the first Korean to teach at the Yale Law School 
in 1969.
  Dean Koh has an extraordinary record. His curriculum vitae fills 8 
pages of very small print. He has a long list of honorary degrees. He 
received a number of medals. His list of honors and awards goes on 
virtually indefinitely; his publications, books, and monographs occupy 
six and a half pages; his selected legal activities, another half a 
page; lectures that he performed, many; teaching activities, 
voluminous; boards of editors, professional affiliations, 
presentations, workshops, boards, bars, member of the bars with which 
he is associated.
  I ask unanimous consent to have this full text printed in the Record 
at the conclusion of my remarks.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  (See exhibit 1.)
  Mr. SPECTER. It is going to be extensive, but it is worth it. I have 
been a Member of this body for some time. I have never seen anyone with 
this kind of a resume. And I am going to ask Senator Byrd the next time 
I see him if he knows of anybody who has a resume which is this 
extensive and this impressive.
  When you characterize the best and the brightest, Harold Koh would be 
at the top of the list. It would be hard to find anybody with a better 
record than Dean Harold Koh. His experience in international law is 
extensive, as in human rights. He would be an ideal Legal Adviser to 
the Department of State with his background and his experience. He has 
judgment, and he has balance. From my personal knowledge, I have total 
confidence that he will apply his legal knowledge and his background in 
a wise and sagacious way. He testified before the Judiciary Committee 
when I chaired the committee and in every way is exemplary.
  It is a little surprising to me that it is necessary to have a 
cloture vote, to have 60 votes to take up the nomination of Dean Koh. 
But considering the politics of Washington and considering the politics 
of the Senate, perhaps we should not be surprised at anything. But 
having a very high surprise threshold, I say that I am surprised Dean 
Koh would require 60 votes to reach a confirmation vote. I urge anybody 
who has any doubts about the caliber of this man to get out their 
glasses, or you may need a magnifying glass to read all of his 
accomplishments. But certainly it would be a travesty if a man such as 
this was not confirmed.
  In an era where we are trying so hard to bring quality people into 
government and so many people shun government because of the hoops and 
hurdles someone has to go through--Dean Koh would be exhibit A of the 
hoops and hurdles--it would be very discouraging for anybody else 
applying for a position which requires Senate confirmation. As strongly 
as I can, I urge his confirmation.
