[quote=Anonymous]For many years people have gone to law school because they didn't know what else to do with their lives. Law school -- unlike medical school -- has been a place for young people to stall, grow up, etc. Because the market was good, law school grads could get high-paying jobs, practice for a few years, pay off loans, and then quit the law (either to move into a new profession, become a SAHM, etc.). This downturn in the legal profession should force people to think long and hard before going to law school (which, frankly, I think people should have been doing all along). Perhaps the good news is that we may end up, ultimately, with a much better and more contented profession, rather than what we've seen up until this time: a bunch of lawyers who hate their jobs because they never should have gone to law school in the first place. The bad news is these young people will need to figure out somewhere else to go...[/quote]
