I imagine the top slice of students at Marshall get recruited by big firms and take the opportunity to pay down their debt. State level criminal justice system staffed by prosecutors and judges who were C students at B law schools is par for the course in every state it seems. You don't even have to have much experience to be a judge in state court these days; often appointed to fill a vacancy a few years out of law school for solely political reasons and then sustained in the position by the power of unelected incumbency


It's not easy getting in to Marshall and it's not easy getting in to the Cook County State's Attorney's office.

It's funny, I like many classmates of color interviewed with the State's Attorneys office. None of us us got a second interview. That b.itch Andrea Zopp didn't extend an offer to her niece and asked me how in the world I could understand Chicago issues.

Then that b.itch got appointed to lead the local Urban League.


She's one of the oddest looking people I've ever seen, like Michael Jackson after he transformed into a zombie in Thriller.

Apologist left specifically because of the Asian insults coming primarily from Crackhead Bob. Even though he was a damn Cardinals fan I was disappointed in his treatment here and understood his leaving. Hope he’s doing well.

Probably drunk.

Moderate!
Stop moderating!

I've never once in my life been offended by hearing or seeing a single word.

It was only a couple months that we had demands to filter "r_________".*


*I hope seeing "r_________" doesn't make anyone have an emotional meltdown or start screaming that Seacrest and I are running an ABLEIST! message board.


Darko wanted that. I assume family member? My nephew in Crystal Lake is disabled but we treat him normal and he became a HS mascot of sorts. I hate to hear/read the word but all it does is inform me about the speaker/writer.

It's interesting how some of the more conservative people here detest the R-word. Maybe they are more intelligent or there's some other pattern.

I am attaching no criticism here, because Dr. Ken and Darko are two people who have expressed their distaste with it, as well as Mike, who used to be my guy.


I have the same opinion as Mike. I give a pass to the poster with it in his name. We all used it growing up.

Using the word now says more about the person than anything. That's about all I take note of it.

I don't really know much about this issue with Apologist. I don't read most of the back and forth argument crap here very often.

I'm not going to waste my time researching something that will probably just make me mad.

So, I'll say if someone is making disparaging remarks about Asians, I have a problem with that. If I see it, I will respond.

Apologist was a cool guy. It's too bad.

He had a great parting shot, though, saying good luck getting along with people in the 21st century.

Not sure about that list's ordering, if they are ranked or just numbered randomly 1 through 12.
Cooley still the king for people who probably shouldn't be going to law school:

Image

https://www.ilrg.com/rankings/law/1/des ... me=&state=

maybe they are using a matrix of admission criteria + bar passage rate, SIU lowest in Illinois in the latter category:

BAR | SCHOOL | ACCEPT
98.9% UC 18
95.3% UIUC 33
93.5% NW 20
79.1% Chi-Kent 49
78.3% NIU 53
77.8% Loyola 45
71.2% Marshall 65
70.3% Depaul 57
64.3% SIU 50

Cooley has a 43% bar passage rate

Interesting read in Cooley's wiki page, the 86+% acceptance rate was from 2017/18; and the affiliation with WMU from 2014 was broken in 2020, but takes three years to actually dissolve. The Kalamazoo campus law school was closed already.

If I was a young kid wanting to be a lawyer, I would be applying to one of these schools. Just get your damn law degree from any where and start practicing. I dont know but do people really give a fuck where you graduated from? As long as you have that law license you're set.
