Economix Blog: Ask David Segal About Law School

On the cover of this week’s Sunday Business section, The Times’s David Segal writes about how standards set by the American Bar Association can affect law schools. The association’s rules make it difficult for law schools to offer legal education without charging hefty tuition.

The article concludes a series of articles about legal education that Mr. Segal has written this year:

Is Law School a Losing Game? (Jan. 9)

Law Students Lose the Grant Game as Schools Win (May 1)

Law School Economics: Ka-Ching! (July 17)

What They Don’t Teach Law Students: Lawyering (Nov. 20)

Readers are invited to submit questions about the series, or about law school, in the comment section below. Mr. Segal will respond to a selection of questions in the days ahead.
