The JD needs to be a 2-year 50-60 credit degree for <100k tuition, not a 2-year 80-90 credit degree for 165k tuition.

more like needs to be an apprenticeship, but yeah

who killed the accelerated JD? lack of student interest, or lack of recognition?

Per the article, and reading between the lines, Northwestern is partly blaming it on some ABA requirement that students actually take the LSAT to get in. It sound like NU was trying to shoehorn ppl in with GMAT scores, either to increase applicants or game class stats.

They got SAs. They did first semester 1L June to Aug, then OCI in Aug. Then 2 semesters, then SA, then 2 semesters, then graduate.

You thought the future of law school was cramming the 3-year curriculum into 2 years by increasing course loads and mandating summer classes?

Why would an alum not want to be solicited for a donation just because they cancelled AJD? Is that supposed to be a joke?
