The National Law Journal’s Law School Review is an online forum examining the state and future of legal education. We wanted to address the question, “Are law schools in crisis?” If the answer is yes, what are the most pressing problems and how should educators and regulators address them? If the answer is no, what is it that law schools are doing right? Is this enough to ensure their futures?

We have assembled a panel of experts to share their thoughts on the subject. These excerpts (and selected readers’ comments) are intended to give a taste of their arguments; we encourage readers to visit the blog to read the whole thing. The comments below have been edited to conform to NLJ style and for length. Elisions are not indicated. — Karen Sloan
