re: Tulane Law vs. LSU Law

Tulane is more prestigious I thought.

If you want to go work in Boston, New York, or DC it would probably be better to consider an out-of-state school. Not because of quality, but rather content. Louisiana Law is unique, nuanced and likely a point of emphasis at any Louisiana Law School. If you're not going to practice in the state, there are better choices out there.

LSU is... a better education.

Please elaborate. I agree LSU has great profs and a history of great profs, but on what bases do you make your categorical statement vis-a-vis Tulane?
Instead of downvoting an honest question, why don't you answer?

Look at the big firms like Kean Miller and Phelps Dunbar and count all the partners that went to LSU, then count the Tulane ones...

Challenge accepted...

Attorneys at Kean Miller from

LSU ~ 90
Tulane - 15

if you want to work in LA, definitely wherever you can go cheapest. out of state tulane is much more prestigious, but in that case may as well go to a better out of state law school for what tulane costs

LSU for in state jobs, Tulane for out of state jobs

This is correct.

Good to know. Lets see if employment stats line up

Looking at partners for Adams and Reese's New Orleans office:

27 from Loyola, 8 from Tulane, 6 from LSU

Guessing his New York law school dreams didn't pan out
