OSCAR notification. Voorhees now has an application with an August 15 deadline. Does that mean he's only hiring alums or is he going early?

What's the deal with Voorhees? There's another OSCAR listing this week with 15 October as the deadline. Is he still accepting applications? Has he discarded previous applications as unsuitable? What's the deal?

His current term clerk (2009-10) is a Duke grad, hired as a 3L. His prior term clerk (2007-09) was a Duke 3L who served two terms. He also has a career clerk, whose alma mater I do not know.
