Every now and then the ABA makes a display of cracking down on one or another toilet, such as by denying Indiana Tech provisional accreditation (only to change its tune a few months later) or putting Charlotte on probation. Such limp-wristed gestures put a veneer of seriousness on the self-serving, scam-promoting ABA.<br /><br />I wouldn't trust the ABA to run a lemonade stand, still less to manage the accreditation of law schools.Old Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02399124824529778710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2363936253583148153.post-58811837676668243732017-02-15T13:21:01.135-08:002017-02-15T13:21:01.135-08:00If challenged on Standard 501, a law skule would m...If challenged on Standard 501, a law skule would most likely allege that every one of its students appeared capable of passing the bar at the time of application.<br /><br />But that's bullshit. Toilet skules admit hordes of people who plainly appear incapable of passing the bar, such as half-wits with LSAT scores far below 150 and other signs of unsuitability for the legal profession.<br /><br />Put teeth in the standard by setting a reasonable minimum LSAT score. The current minimum of 120—the lowest possible score—obviously is not acceptable.Old Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02399124824529778710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2363936253583148153.post-36812456364735040272017-02-14T17:05:16.118-08:002017-02-14T17:05:16.118-08:00This proves, yet again, that the ABA exists solely...This proves, yet again, that the ABA exists solely to keep any and all law schools in business period full stop.
