UM: Law School

By

Law school enrollment is declining, due in part to a lack of jobs after graduation, according to an Associated Press report. The article quotes Sarah Zearfoss, assistant law dean and admissions director for the University of Michigan Law School, which saw a 14% drop in new student enrollment: “This year, people realize that this is not a one-year economic decline. It seems to be a much longer-term problem. … Now that people are aware it’s not a cakewalk to get a big salary, they’re thinking more carefully and a little more rationally about making this choice.” [Source]
