The ABA Journal has posted a podcast, Lowering the Stakes: How Law Schools Can Help Next Gen Lawyers Take Gamble Out of Hefty Tuition:
More and more, critics of ever-increasing law school tuition say enrolling only makes economic sense if students don’t have to pay tuition, or graduate from a top-tier school. In those same conversations, there are often accusations that law school recruiters aren’t being honest with prospective students about post-JD career options.
In this audio program, ABA Journal Podcast moderator Stephanie Francis Ward chats with our guests about tuition, disclosure and what could and should change about legal education to train the next generation of lawyers without saddling them with crushing debt.
