Why would the white lawyers at Southern be inferior to the black lawyers, particularly in the age of Affirmative Action? This makes no sense to me.
Some Blacks may choose to go there for cultural reasons. Whites go there because they don’t have any other options.
So the range of Black student quality is going to be wider than the range of white student quality.
This doesn’t change the fact that it is a bottom tier school with a deserved low reputation. Clearly the lowest of the four Louisiana schools.
I haven’t looked at the Texas law school rankings in a while but the two lowest accredited (by far) used to be Texas Southern (Black) and St. Mary’s (targeting ‘underserved’ Hispanics. I’ve met some decent Hispanic lawyers that went to St. Mary’s, as well.
