The Truth About Law School, Diversity, And Debt
What do you need to know before you make the investment?
How do you know if law school is worth the six-figure investment? And how do those high costs of legal education impact the diversity of the legal profession?
There’s a lot of discussion and data out there about law school costs and diversity and on this week’s episode of The Jabot podcast, I dig into the details with Kyle McEntee, Executive Director of Law School Transparency. We talk not just about the cost of legal education but about how to make law school more accessible, affordable, and innovative. We also discuss the details of LST’s new report on the structural changes needed to make law schools more diverse and to lower the amount of debts students need to attend.

The Jabot podcast is an offshoot of the Above the Law brand focused on the challenges women, people of color, LGBTQIA, and other diverse populations face in the legal industry. Our name comes from none other than the Notorious Ruth Bader Ginsburg and the jabot (decorative collar) she wears when delivering dissents from the bench. It’s a reminder that even when we aren’t winning, we’re still a powerful force to be reckoned with.
Happy listening!
