The third year is mostly to squeeze another year of tuition out of students. We might consider apprenticeships, too. Maybe call that two years as well. While we’re at it, how about require law schools to teach bar material DURING PAID CLASS HOURS so they don’t have to fork over an additonal grand to BarBri, etc. How insane is it that you pay for THREE YEARS of law school tuition and THEN have to go to BarBri classes all summer — which is paid for separately! Law professors can’t lower themselves to teach the bar-tested elements of contracts? Yeesh. I’ll fantasize further: a total ban on “graduate” law degrees, like the “LLM in Taxation” that are yet another racket.
