The art of winning an unfair academic game. A member of the Jurisdynamics Network. Friday, October 19, 2012. Big law firm suicide. In The better angels of our profession. I sorted law professors into three camps according to their reaction to recession and industry-wide restructuring in the legal profession.

MoneyLaw: Sky Hook -- One or Two Words?

http://money-law.blogspot.com/2012/09/sky-hook-one-or-two-words.html

The art of winning an unfair academic game. A member of the Jurisdynamics Network. Monday, September 10, 2012. Sky Hook - One or Two Words? That actually may be the title of an 80 page law review article with 300 footnotes. That article has not been written but, if it were, it might be more interesting than most of what is published.

I see that Professor Campos is finished with his effort to expose the Law School Scam. I read his blog once or twice but felt like I knew and agreed with most of what he was saying so I did not keep up. Judging by some of his enemies, how wrong could he be? In addition, administrators say yes to these requests and demands for a host of reasons other than student or...
