Q: Is a law school education a good buy in the current economic environment? Why is law school so expensive?
A: It is more appropriate to consider legal education as an investment in a rigorous academic discipline that advances your platform over a lifetime. If you think of an education as something a person “buys,” you miss most of the costs, which include three years of challenging academic work, and many of the rewards, which are not about the moment you graduate, but are over a professional lifetime.
