My law school doesn’t do financial aid.
Well, it’s a good thing he doesn’t live in California. THAT state has the MOST difficult state bar to pass in the country.
No, too extreme. We do need good lawyers. Any school that has low pass rates should be put on short probation and then denied federal funds. I recall back in 80s when I was looking at law schools, the same occurred at American University. Not sure about the funding, though I recall that they were on probation. This should be more visible and for low pass rates, intolerance (to all viewpoints), PC facism, etc. Bad schools should be put on public notice.
Simply Reinstating the Original 13th Amendment would FIX the Over Population of Lawyers OVERNIGHT and would go A long way towards Saving the Republic.
The Missing 13th Amendment: *No Lawyers Allowed In Public Office*
Alaska doesn’t have any.
I think it’s paternalistic to discourage students from going to law school. No one is really educated anymore without going to grad school. Anyone that graduates from law school is markedly more valuable in any endeavor than previously, to themselves and to the market.
There is no human endeavor that doesn’t need accountants, bankers and lawyers. Of course, there should be no federal grants for students to go to grad school either.
Whatever it takes, anything it takes and anything that works to thin the herd of lawyers is fine by me. I can only assume it is the possibility of riches that encourages most to attend law screwl.
Right now lawyers are a dime a dozen and most seem to be chasing ambulances or liability claims of any sort or defending against those who make the claims.
Sounds like a racket to me. Sue randomly to create work for your profession?
Abolish the U.S. Department of Education
Further discrimination against North Carolina by the DOE? Speaking of thinning the herd, I look forward to Trump’s cutbacks on the DOE.
Law schools are such money mills for universities. They cost a fortune and don’t have many expenses, other than the exorbitant salaries of the professors. Most graduate schools, for that matter, are money mills for universities. I agree 100% that all financial aid for any graduate degree should be cut off. There will still be people getting them but the costs will plunge.
“The first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers”, Henry VI, Part2, Act IV, Scene 2
I dunno, they may be right - we certainly have too many lawyers. Personally, I’m thinking some sort of Hunger Games/Running Man or other trial by combat games should be required before entry into law school is permitted.
Why is the federal government giving anyone these “loans”? It’s just more redistribution.
There should be no federal money available to aid students at any school. There should be no federal money to go to any school at all except for schools on military bases and for US personnel in foreign venues.
Congressman Hank “Guam is going to tip over” Johnson passed a state bar exam somewhere.
This is a creative way to ensure the work force is balanced, thus if this denial method of Fin Aid were instituted for all fields of study across the nation (a federal office of Student Aid Approval) it would create a situation that prevents too many liberal arts degrees, thus starving the professors and reclaiming society. Teaching young adults four years of study that leads to idle hands and an inability to repay the loans could be fixed very simply.
Get rid of all financial aid and the cost of a college education would plummet and all the fake degree programs like homosexual studies would evaporate.
I’m ok with thinning the herd this way. In fact I would take it one step further and say that you can’t have financial aid unless you are majoring in a subject that is on an approved list of majors. The list would be heavy with math and science. No political science, history, literature or other useless degrees.
But This Isn’t The Way To Thin The Herd
I know a way but it would be illegal and I might be sued by a lawyer.....
