It’s no wonder kids get out of school and have zero idea of how to actually practice law.

From what I recall his first semester faculty evaluation was during the class he went through his vegetarian PowerPoint.
Yes, Diamond and Smith (assistant deans or whatever they were) sat in class to observe him that day. A bizarre choice by Levy, to be sure.
And I believe the admin law climate nut was a guy named Richards or Richardson. Had him 3L year and didn’t learn shite either.

That was so surreal. I recall thinking that I was watching someone trying to get themselves fired in front of 100 students.

After 3 years of law school, I realized I was boned on day 1 of my first job when a partner asked me to file something at the courthouse.
I’d barely been inside a courthouse, let alone done any actual work.

- he got into it with a couple of frat boys about being a vegetarian on Tuesday. The next class on Thursday, he skipped the torts topic of the day and gave us a 45 minute PowerPoint presentation on why we should all be vegetarians, too.
- we only got halfway through the torts book by the end of the semester, meanwhile John Church had his students in one of the other sections done with the book like a week early. I never had a good handle on torts because Levy was a TERRIBLE teacher. I taught it to myself for the bar exam and ended up doing ok.
- he brought his dogs to campus/class often, and they shite on the floor more than once.
I hope Landry gets him fired for being shitty at his job.

She might want to rethink that statement. Free speech can carry all sorts of consequences.

I remember the scuttlebutt lounge. They had a chic who danced there and was pregnant about 7 months, she had so many red bumps on her arse it looked like she sat in an ant pile.
At least that’s what I heard.

For telling people to go frick themselves?? I definitely don't agree with this guy politically, but this is faux outrage. Mfkers need thicker skin.
The majority of the people on this website tell people to frick themselves, and also get told to go frick themselves on a daily basis.
Get over it. Let the old frick get it off his chest, and just move on with life. frick faux outrage.. That's the game cornballs on their side play.

We may have been in the same section. Remember that exact spiel.

This is a profession, a teacher. Not some rig hand from Midland.
He just trashed the people who pay to attend his classes.

I can’t remember the professors name, but he taught the admin law class. His last two weeks were blocked off for him to pontificate about climate change and how the residents of new orleans were idiots living on the Isle of Denial.
Depending on when you graduated it also could have been bryner. He taught me admin law and is also head of the climate change clinic. He is a nice guy but stupidly liberal. He is also the one that also got in trouble recently.
Most of the LSU law professors are extremely liberal. It does stifle speech when you know the professor’s views. While the grading is anonymous they can raise or lower your grade by .3 points for “participation”. If you have a scholarship you don’t want to lose or you are fighting for a high class rank why would you let the people deciding your grade know that you are conservative.

Bryner reportedly told students that Trump’s reelection signaled a rejection of expertise in government and encouraged them to consider how this might affect their future legal practice. Critics, including Landry, argued that these statements crossed the line between teaching and imposing political views.

My property law and real estate transactions professor at LSU told us verbatim that she was a socialist, so if we wanted a good grade on the exam, we should answer with that in mind.
I always did well in her classes because I fed her what she wanted to hear in my test answers. Easy peasy.
