    Is the olam here aware that Northwestern University Law School has recently developed a horrible reputation in the industry, and employers now look askance before hiring grads from Northwestern Law?

    Just a word of caution for those considering what law school to apply to.

    Really?

    One of their alumni just got a Supreme Court clerkship with Justice Sotomayor.

    Maybe that is the source of the horrible rep?

    PBA,

    With Justice Sotomayor?

    Maybe that’s the cause of the bad name 🙂

    Northwestern in fine. They have a rep for cutting corners a bit (2 year JD, 3 year JD/MBA), but they are solid. And I hear if you get into U of C then they give solid scholarships.

    It’s a relative “horrible” reputation. It’s still a good school, it just doesn’t have the rep they used to. They fell out of the top 10 in the US news rankings recently but it’s still in the vaunted “T14.” Still better than most schools though.
