Law - More on "Is Law School a Losing Game?"

Updating this ILB entry from Jan. 9th, which quoted a NYT story, Stan Jastrzebski has this article and video for Indiana Public Media quoting William Henderson of Maurer Law, headed "IU Law Prof Wants Better Numbers, Ratings Changes." It begins:

An Indiana University law professor is calling on the American Bar Association to clear up how law schools are rated. William Henderson wants the ABA to begin auditing how many law school graduates are gainfully employed in their field of study soon after graduation. The current system rating agencies like U.S. News and World Report use only tracks how many graduates get jobs, regardless of where. Henderson said it’s a system law schools have known for years is broken, but which cannot be fixed without overarching control by an outside body.
