| Abstract | While many law students and recent grads have come to feel that legal education is an expensive waste of time now that the job market for lawyers has collapsed, some seasoned law practitioners have their own concerns about the worth of a legal education. Their concerns, however, relate to product quality rather than product marketability. Newly-minted lawyers don't seem to write as well as they used to. Other complaints are more nebulous. In this article, the author delves deeper into law school education to explain how "great swaths of core legal doctrine have been scythed from the required law curriculum, a process of misguided reform that began in the 1960s." This has left law students trying to make bricks without straw. The author exhorts "seasoned" law practitioners to become once again "fully engaged in the affairs of the legal academy" and "take a good hard look "for themselves" at the doctrinal side of the law school curriculum." (Contains 32 footnotes.) (ERIC). |
