General Board / Re: Ave Maria Law School Moving to Florida« on: February 22, 2007, 01:11:37 PM »
Ave Maria had a lot of good things going for them. Strong bar passage rate, excellent funding, low attrition rate for a T4. Shaking things up will certainly cause many potential students to avoid this school.

Excellent post TDJD84. Very good points. There is nothing wrong with getting your JD online, and I think many mature B&M students understand this. There are tons of kids running around this board bashing everyone and anyone they can get a rise out of. I think that many B&M students would respect most people who could pass the bar while studying on their own.
Also, good point about the lack of networking and social interaction opportunities that many online DL schools do not provide. One day they will probably address this and figure out a way to improve this aspect. Unless you are already established, it is tough to get any kind of job without knowing the right people. 14

Susan,
Drexel University has just started a law school and one of the focuses is entrepreneurial business law. Here is the PDF - www.drexel.edu/law/pdfs/entrepreneurship.pdf If you have any trouble opening the document, you can simply Google "Drexel Law + entrepreneur law" and it should be the first hit that comes up. 15

What would be interesting to see is how well a student with a low LSAT does after a transfer to a T1 school Wow, awesome semester! Your rank must be kick @ss! 16

Many lower ranked law schools actually have tougher grading curves... So his/her success at a school with a 2.4 - 2.6 grading curve would only strengthen the OP's argument. 17

My father had trouble passing the bar too, but it was a long walk from the mill and he was thirsty... Couldn't resist this old joke
