The law school is teetering on bottom 10 percent in the nation level. Not quite there. Close though.It is when these folks are not even mid-career yet. More mid-level executives gives you a greater shot at senior executives… and senior executives gives you more shots at mega-donors / impactful alumni. Same goes for putting TU grads into the Washington pipeline.
I do think the Law School has room for improvement compared to the business / engineering schools though.
Law school apps are up nationwide. That should help.
