D.C. Mun. Regs. tit. 8, r. 8-A1002
Except as specified otherwise by law or this title, each appointment to a position at the District of Columbia School of Law shall be made using open competition procedures established by the Dean.
Open competition procedures shall provide for the application and consideration of all persons without regard to current or former employment with the School of Law or employment with any other agency of the District of Columbia.
Initial appointments to positions in the Educational Service shall be made as the result of open competition and on the basis of merit by selection from the most qualified eligible applicants based on specific job description requirements and standards of eligibility.
The Dean shall establish written qualifications, job descriptions, and eligibility requirements for all positions in the Educational Service.
The Dean shall be responsible for the promulgation, distribution, implementation, and administration of procedures for appointment which ensure that appointments are based solely on merit, fitness, and qualifications to perform the duties of the position.
No officer or employee of the School of Law or member of the Board of Governors shall influence another person to withdraw from competition for any position in the Educational Service for the purpose of either improving or injuring the prospects of any other application for appointment or selection.
Under authority of D.C. Code, § 31-1548, the Dean may authorize the appointment of any person employed by the Antioch School of Law on February 24, 1987, to a position in the Career, Educational, or Excepted Service without advertising the position or use of open competition procedures as long as the appointee meets all of the applicable qualifications and standards for the position established under this title or the CMPA, and other applicable requirements of law and this title. The provisions of this subsection shall apply to appointments made on or before December 31, 1988.
