Kari E. Milligan (Mitchell | Hamline Law School) & Ryan Jerome LeCount (Mitchell | Hamline University), When LSAT Doesn’t Matter and Other Surprising Finds from a Deep Dive into Academic Probation in Law School, 62 Cal. W. L. Rev. 231 (2025). “Overall, this article sheds light on how law schools can better understand and assist students on academic probation and aims to catalyze research into this understudied realm.” Ditto.
