A TJSL degree is not really that highly attractive to employers, I guess. Currently I’m a driver for Uber full time.

— Clark Moffatt, a 2006 graduate of Thomas Jefferson School of Law, commenting on his job prospects and current employment situation. Since graduating, Moffatt has failed the bar exam numerous times, has never held a legal job, and has never earned more than $25,000. He owes more than $170,000 on his student loans, lives in a rented mobile home, and receives food stamps so his family can survive.

(Moffatt is one of 12 Thomas Jefferson School of Law graduates who are suing the school in a class-action lawsuit over its allegedly deceptive employment and salary statistics.)
