Georgetown is no longer an elite "t-14" http://blog.spiveyconsulting.com/2017-usnwr-rankings-are-here-2/
This is no surprise to the big lawyers working in DC. |

| damn, has GULC ever fallen out of the T14? it's about time. i am in biglaw now but started out in real-deal shitlaw (insurance defense, working for an "and associates" firm as an independent contractor). I worked with multiple GULC grads in shitlaw. |

| GW used to be 20, or at least in the 20s, on a really consistent basis. This has got to hurt. |

| This is SO dumb. GWU is the same school it was last year, as is GWU. Washington and Lee increased 12 spots. They are the same students they were a year ago. This is such a stupid arms race. |

GW (and GULC) probably had to lower their median LSAT to maintain class sizes now that nobody wants to go to law school. Yes, the rankings are stupid, but they're all this profession has. Everyone knows law school is a joke and teaches you nothing. |

Agree this is ridiculously stupid.
Didn't George Mason briefly jump up this list 10 years ago? Also, happy to see U miami drop so much. We used to live in Miami and the miami lawyers were shockingly low level. Even compared with the U of F students. However, the school was spending TONS of cash, which was all on things to improve their rankings. I don't think the students ever caught pace with teh rankings. |

And they're tied with George Mason(aka ASSLAW). I wonder why they dropped so many slots? |

the problem gulc and gw run into is they are behind 13 other schools for jobs on their home turf.
other regional law schools such as alabama and ut-austin have their home turf to themselves. they are top dogs in their backyard. not so for gulc/gw. i think that plus their large class sizes are going to see their rankings fall in the future |

| This ranking is a joke for putting Wake Forest ahead of UNC and putting Mason in a tie with W&M. Any Virginia resident who takes Mason over W&M or North Carolina resident who take sWake over UNC is foolish. |
