[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Why so much love for GMU?  It’s a right wing law school.  [/quote][/b]

Believe it or not, a number of lawyers still believe that students must learn to argue all sides of a point in class, and for their clients, not just SJW woke stuff.  It's supposed to be a professional school.  Yale is no longer that.  If you want social indoctrination you go there.  If you want to learn the law you go to Scalia Law, Texas, maybe Notre Dame, etc.  [/quote]

Actually because it's a conservative school, those kids get good clerkships with conservative judges (there are tons of them) that kids fr higher-ranked schools are not a great fit for.

It's easier all the way up for conservative law grads (jobs on the hill, in administrations, etc.) You can get a very puffed up resume easily.[/quote]

I would add that is it a strong, relatively reasonably priced law school with proximity to DC, which is great for internships year round at federal agencies and NGOs and think tanks, which is helpful for job seekers.  Additionally, they have a highly ranked part time law school.  Yes, Georgetown is ranked higher but it is also 1.5X the price.  The students I know that went there are not conservative by the way.  There is no conservative test to get in, just like JD Vance was allowed into Yale.[/quote]
