This was the subject header of an email I received from my law school's Career Services Office. I thought, hey! Isn't that nice? Needless to say, I knew that email was a fishing expedition into whether I had a job.
The emailed offered me resources and access to a job site service I hadn't heard of. I wrote back, saying that I was interested in resources about alternative careers for those with a law degree and that I would love access to the job service. Oddly, I never received a response. That was a few weeks ago. The CSO even has my updated email address. Hmmm...
I found an article in the Plain Dealer that explained that my law school has the lowest bar passage rate for those taking the bar in that state. Something to the effect of 85% from my school to over 90% from other (public) law schools. My school's excuse? "Well, of the 275 (approx.) grads, only 70 stayed here to take the bar.
Nice. A law school failure in that state and in the others.

It's no excuse that only 70 of us stayed in Ohio to take the bar. If the school is geared more towards most of us leaving, shouldn't more of us have passed in other states? Too many of our classmates have failed, and there is no excuse for not preparing us.
Strange article. If the CWR isn't geared for students to pass the test in Ohio where are they gearing it? One would think that statistically it should be an across the board kind of thing. Who knows?
But, (LOL) a law school smitten with the slippery slope theory----what can one expect? :-)
