This forum is intended as a place where law students and professors can discuss the challenges faced by legal education in light of the economic recession and collapse of the legal job market.
The Georgetown Law SBA has a proposal on externships which can be found here:

We would like to use this site as place to generate new, creative, progressive alternatives aimed at addressing the same problem: law school no longer equips students to find decent work in the current economy.
More content will be posted here shortly.
In the mean time, please comment freely on this blog with your own ideas for how to change law school for the better.
