since you brought me up, i'll respond (which will have to be an exercise in restraint).
what are you getting at here? as i'm sure you're aware, since you went to southern (where i'm sure most people end up opening up their own practice), solo/small firm work can be quite lucrative.
i did.
i could have gone to yale and i don't think i would enjoy being a lawyer every day for the rest of my life. the fact that i'm considering going back to school for an engineering degree has absolutely nothing to do with where i went to law school.

I work in a small firm. I have since the day I started practicing. I'm certainly not attempting to degrade the work or area of law you practice. But its not a big law job.
I guess what I am getting at, is if you didn't have a scholarship, how much sense would it have been for you to go to Tulane in hindsight? For your purposes is a moot point. But does it make sense for anyone to go to Tulane without a scholarship?
You and mo called me stupid for suggesting there are circumstances were SULC should be considered an option. I'm using your situation as an example of why its not the worst thing in the world to do and should be considered in some circumstances.

Right, and I wasn't getting at that. Just pointing out the fact that you have a degree that costs 120k+ and you wanting to get out of law.
