"NCCU (North Carolina Central University) one of the best law school in the south, better yet the country! Four of my friends just graduated and I have some who are finishing up. Central Law might not have the same ring as Columbia or Cornell I guess cause it’s an Historically Black College, but I thought passing the Bar is what counts."

"I guess these Law schools didn’t expect to produce such great PRO BLACK minds like Johnnie Cochran and Alton Maddox. They are probably afraid of what might be coming out of future generations. Time for some of these so called Black schools to raise the standards of their programs and make it just as attractive to attend their school as it is to attend Harvard or Yale. I won’t hold my breath on that though!"

"It’s like no matter what we do we can’t get ahead and always get the short end of the stick!"

To be fair,

"Even though their scores and grades are improving, and are very close to those of white applicants, African-Americans and Mexican-Americans are increasingly being shut out of law schools"

Forget the comments - how did you miss THIS?

This guy is a goddamn Columbia Law Prof.

"Even though their scores and grades are improving, and are very close to those of white applicants, African-Americans and Mexican-Americans are increasingly being shut out of law schools"

Average black LSAT =142. Average white LSAT = 153. That's more than a standard deviation behind. How did he get "very close" out of that?

The funny thing is, we practice labor and employment law exclusively, so he knows better.

And, yes, I am serious. I am not making this shit up.

From the website:

"Each year, our students have the opportunity to participate in a number of job fairs. The Southeastern Minority Job Fair, held in Atlanta, Georgia, affords students the opportunity to interview with approximately 120 employers from across the country. The Equal Justice Works Job Fair, held annually in Washington, D.C., provides an opportunity to interview with approximately 75 public interest employers from across the country."

Just checked their site and LSAC data. They seem to have a decent employment rate for what it is. They also seem to target public interest stuff (PD, etc). At $8K/yr, it probably isn't a bad investment.
