Welcome back to Ahead of the Curve. I’m Karen Sloan, legal education editor at Law.com, and I’ll be your host for this weekly look at innovation and notable developments in legal education.
This week, I’m taking a deeper dive into the new entry level legal employment figures released last week by the American Bar Association. Former University of North Carolina law professor Bernie Burk and University of Chicago Law career services dean Lois Casaleggi weigh in on what those numbers tell us about 2020 and beyond. Next, U.S. Rep. Jamie Raskin will return to his former stomping ground at American University Washington College of Law to deliver the school’s commencement address. Read on and stay safe!
