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.

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.

An articling requirement would destroy shitty schools. Firms wouldn't be willing to pay for their graduates.

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