[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This subject could easily be in the real estate and education/college forums, but I'll ask it here. AU is building an enormous law school campus on the equivalent of several city blocks in Tenleytown. The current enrollment of Washington College of Law is about 1650 students, and the new campus is being built to educate 2000 students. The expanded enrollment is larger than the entire population of some selective liberal arts colleges. Why is AU/WCL expanding to this extent, when the current job market for new law graduates, including AU grads, is not great? And the long term prospects are even bleaker, with anticipated structural shifts in the legal services industry.[/quote] Because the concrete's already been poured, contracts signed. What should they do, abandon it? the industry will turn around, like it always does. [/quote]
