For all the deserved flack George Mason took for renaming their school, maybe they’re starting to reap some benefits of that move. TaxProf Blog points out that this year’s 1L class is bigger and — at least as far as admissions inputs — better than last year.
But it’s still a dumb name.
Opus 2 Steps Up Its AI Game With Acquisition Of A Legal Tech Startup
With the addition of Uncover’s technology, the litigation software is delivering rapid innovation.
The Antonin Scalia Law School at George Mason University (ranked #45 in U.S. News) welcomed 179 1Ls this Fall, up 14% from 2015 (157) while also increasing its median LSAT (162, +1) and GPA (3.66, +0.6).
It’s a good sign that they’ve made the right branding move, but this improvement still doesn’t get the school back to where it once was.
The 2016 class is 41% smaller than 2010 (303), with decreases in its median LSAT (-2, from 164) and GPA (-.12, from 3.82).
A whole lot of students are flocking to be ASSoLs I guess.
