Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book reviews the standards of legal education. Measures undertaken by the American Bar Association show progress towards quality control as law schools rise to meet higher expectations. The book endorses raising entrance requirements and lengthening the law school course. It points out how some schools schedule classes at convenient times for self-supporting students and argues that full and part-time programs can exist as separate tracks. The author suggests focusing energy on encouraging schools that offer a full-time track and leaving part-time programs to other groups. The author also argues that running law schools as commercial enterprises and basing income on enrollment is harmful to the learning environment. Finally, the book turns to how different states decide who can practice law. It backs rules requiring applicants to graduate from an approved law school and pass an official bar exam to improve the profession.
