A quarrel of quibblers (that would apply to more than just law academics, of course).

Dear All,

Yesterday I had to consider collective nouns. My list revealed:

a murder of crows
a convocation of eagles
a business of ferrets
a buffoonery of orangutans
a parliament of owls
a company of parrots
an impossibility of platypuses
an improbability of puffins

and my favourite:

an implausibility of gnus.

However, I know of no collective noun for a collection of law academics.

Is there one?

If not, any suggestions?
