Which law schools are new to (and excluded from) the T14 in this version of the rankings?
Rankings? It’s not what you bring to the table when you enter law school, it’s the education you carry when you practice.
Will a mainstay in the T14 be kicked to the curb? We'll have to wait and see in the real U.S. News law school rankings.
Despite the criticism some universities have been receiving due to their students’ actions in response to the recent Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the U.S. News law school rankings probably won’t change much because of it.
This may completely defy reason, but it is what it is.
* The new US News rankings are out for everyone to complain about and the final tally of boycotting law schools rests at 63. Congratulations... the rankings make even less sense now than before because of you! [Law.com] * On that note, the new US News rankings also devalued faculty expertise... right when institutions in GOP-led states are attacking tenure. Great job! [Chronicle of Higher Education] * First Circuit tosses Varsity Blues conviction, which is great news for admissions officers looking to earn some on the side. [Law360] * Dianne Feinstein returns to the Senate allowing the Judiciary Committee to sort of function again. And all it cost is some self-imposed elder abuse. [Bloomberg Law News] * Fani Willis drops objection to Kimberly Debrow now that the lawyer has shed a couple more clients. Honestly unsure what's worse: the prosecutor trying to get you kicked off the case or the prosecutor then deciding, "you know what... we're happy to have you represent the defendants." [NY Times] * Antitrust is broken and willing prosecutors aren't enough to fix it because corporate stooge judges make taking a case to trial poses too much risk. And Democratic nominees have been largely to blame. [American Prospect] * University of Maryland forced to end its streaming service after being reminded that it doesn't own its streaming rights. This is what happens when you try to come out of your shell. [Washington Post]
Big changes in the T14, along with some of the largest rankings tumbles and gains.
Can the T14 rankings get even more absurd? You betcha.
This won't help U.S. News to recover from its bad reputation.
What does this mean? When will the U.S. News rankings be released?
There are so many inaccuracies that U.S. News couldn't even give a future publication date.
Uh-oh! The latest version of the rankings are apparently riddled with errors.
What could possibly be the hold up here?
