Pretty much all attorneys are in excess. If you think litigation defense attorneys or Family law attorneys don't unnecessarily run up their bill you are being naive.

I can't disagree. However, the defense and family law attorneys are more effect in the causation chain.

What's the boards opinion of Tulane Law?


The Bar Journal once posted a job offer for a “Loyola Law graduate or equivalent.” When asked what an “equivalent” would be, the response came back that the equivalent would be either three Tulane grads, or an LSU 1L (part time).

Just coming from my girlfriend who is currently in law school at LSU and top 10% of her class.

We both probably have a higher IQ than you to be honest

"Just coming from" -- What does that mean?

If she is in the top 10% at LSU and is envious of Southern Law students she is a very foolish person.

Dubious. You portray your girl friend to be a fool and I suspect you are pretty close to the imbecile IQ range.

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.


There are many others that have gone down your brother’s path. Most end up realizing that they can’t find work out of state, sit for the Louisiana bar exam, and fail because they didn’t take any civil law courses. It’s why Tulane’s bar passage ranking is always lower than LSUs.

Yes, along with a nursing program. Many nurses who treat you and your children are grads of SU nursing school.


They still have to pass the same state boards as those from the other schools, and from talking to a few nurses, not Southern grads, the clinical part of Southern's program has some brutal instructors, the drop out rate is high, and those that make it are pretty good.

If I remember correctly... Southern was the only HBCU with a program ... don’t know if it’s still that way


Howard University has a school of engineering, it is ranked number 132 by U.S. News, by comparison LSU is no.92, and since someone mentioned the school earlier in reference to Southern and LSU, Purdue is ranked 9th.

Where did I say she was envious? And you don’t know what “just coming from” means? Someone with an IQ above 80 would infer that’s what she told me.

I don’t even know what triggered you lol.

If you don’t realize it, every year attorneys become more and more needed.

Notnin the PI sector, but Administrative\regulatory.

I actually got into LSU, but was rejected by Southern.

I'm seeing more and more judges from SULC


This is true, I've practiced before several, all were very competent, profesional and respected. People on this board like to shite on Southern grads, but once they pass the bar and have practiced a couple of years, they are no less competent than graduates from the other schools.

92% passage rate for first time takers @ LSU. I mean, c'mon, I think we can make it a little more challenging.
