I graded for years and years. This is not true.

Maybe he misinterpreted a redneck explaining the 7/9 sections passed under the old grading system?

Yes. It is. I can only speak as to a few attorneys. But, it did happen. Those few later screwed up so badly, they quit or got into enough trouble they were disbarred. I did not imply it is a long term policy or certainly a current one, but it did happen in the early 1980’s.

The Bar Exam in Louisiana is not any easier tan the Bar Exam in: Tennessee, Mississippi, Texas, New York or at least a dozen other states...probably more

I know it pisses off the LSU law students at how much easier the classes (or atleast the grading scale) is at Southern.
I doubt anyone with above an 80 IQ believes that.
Any LSU student that was pissed off about that shite show could transfer, or have applied there initially.

Serious question, does Southern have an engineering program?

I don’t know shite about SULC but I do know that a family member of mine who has been a lawyer for 20 years recently got hired to teach there. Despite this 20 years of experience and an attorney father who has serious stroke, they were still floundering in child custody cases for the parish. Then daddy pulled some strings and now...poof...law Professor @ SULC

They could even cross register and take classes at Southern if they wanted it to be easier.
For the most part, Law school is law school. Sharper or harder working students go to better schools, which are more competitive. However, they're all reading the same cases and learning the same shite.

This thread must be racist

Worst law school in the country (and it’s not even close), but can’t shut it down due to HBC status. Travesty.

Cooley is way worse.

Honestly...that’s debatable. Southern has a very strong claim.

Hillar Moore is a graduate of SULC, so there’s that. Couldn’t get into LSU law.

I witnessed two engineers at work who graduated from LSU... who thinks their hot shite... get showed up by an engineer from Purdue... who wasn’t even aware LSU had a engineering program... the funny thing is he knew several engineers from Southern(older guys) who he worked with around the country...

All of the law schools in the state produce "less than competent attorneys". SULC is higher per capita, but its not a large gap. The way to reign in the nonsense is to continue to protect the bar exam and start curbing the tort free for all.
I'm seeing more and more judges from SULC.
Does anyone take this sort of shite seriously? I guess the upvotes say, yes.
Edit: perhaps I'm misinterpreting your post. It's ambiguous (and it's "rein" fwiw), but even giving this the BOD, it doesn't make a lot of sense. Help me.

Slightly off topic, but: What's the boards opinion of Tulane Law?
Posted on 1/5/19 at 7:02 am to rowbear1922
Loyola is better

Really? I definitely would not have guessed that. My little brother is halfway through Tulane and chose it over LSU because he has no intentions of staying in Louisiana after school and because Tulane has some form of a sports law program.
