From the PCL site:  "Thus, if you want to be a prosecutor or a corporate attorney, don't waste our time applying; there are plenty of other schools out there for you!"

Gold, Jerry!  Pure gold!

EDIT:  And more --  "If you have read all this stuff and still want to find out more, contact us."

Oh wow.

i think i get what they are trying to do...and the school is cheap as hell..but...ugh. that's about all i can say...ugh.

The more I look into it, the harder it is to rip on them though.  They're up front in that if you go to that school, you are NOT going to make money.  Their purpose is to educate public interest attorneys, organizers, etc.  The school's not accredited by the ABA but at least you can take the Cal Bar, and it's cheap enough that you can do public interest stuff.

yeah, that seems to be the gist of it. i have to give them credit for that. i wonder if anyone didn't do their research on the place and went there with the intention of making money? i would still say cooley is worse than this place because this place isn't trying to hide anything. cooley attempts to say it's the bee's knees (yeah, i said it).

Nope.  Not by a long-shot.  People's College of Law wins that honor.  The students are obligated to do all of the janitorial duties and landscaping upkeep of the school.

MAINTENANCE OF THE SCHOOL - ACCOUNTABILITY HOURS - "Accountability" refers to the requirement that each student be accountable to the PCL collective by contributing 40 hours of work per school year to school operations.  The administrative office works with the Accountability Committee on assigning tasks to students and ensuring that work requirements are fulfilled.  If you have a skill that can contribute to the school, you can earn accountability time for it.  i.e., are you a carpenter, a typist, a web-master, a grant-writer, a fund-raiser?
