Taylor","doi":"10.2139/SSRN.2569847","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2139/SSRN.2569847","url":null,"abstract":"Over the past few years, law schools have been dealing with a drastic and, so far, unyielding decline in student interest. Between 2010 and 2013, student enrollments fell almost 25%, to levels not seen in 40 years. This trend has prompted many to wonder what schools have done, and what they can do, to ensure their survival in this new climate. This article explores the extent to which law schools have used students of color, particularly black and Hispanic students, to bolster enrollments and lessen the effects of the downturn. The results of this analysis suggest that a school’s median LSAT score influenced the extent to which the racial composition of its entering classes changed between 2010 and 2013. Black and Hispanic students were critical components of the enrollment management calculus for private law schools with the lowest median LSAT scores. Higher-median schools tended to rely more heavily on white and Asian enrollments to stem declines. These trends led to increased racial and ethnic stratification in law school enrollments, where black and Hispanic students were more likely to attend schools with lower median LSAT scores in 2013 than in 2010, while white and Asian students were more likely to attend schools with higher median scores. Perceptions of law school quality and prestige are greatly influenced by a school’s median LSAT score; therefore, the trend of stratification may only serve to intensify racial and ethnic differences in career paths and trajectories.","PeriodicalId":82632,"journal":{"name":"Saint Louis University law journal","volume":"59 1","pages":"5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68208653","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The consultant concluded that there were no answers to be found in other states, nor would it help to shop the state’s business around to different insurance carriers. Instead, the consultant suggested that Missouri offer “two plan choices” to its employees, in order to, as a Wall Street Journal reporter put it, “try to soften the rising cost for employees.” 3 One plan had low monthly premiums but high co-payments. The other had high monthly premiums but lower co-payments. The idea, of course, was that healthier employees would choose the plan with lower monthly premiums, and sicker employees would choose the one with the lower co-pays. Both plans, however, increased employee cost-sharing compared to the previous year’s plan. The Missouri story encapsulates the thrust of American health policy over the last thirty years: substitute free markets, market competition, and consumer sovereignty for the system of professional authority, non-profit and voluntary agencies, and bureaucratic regulation that once governed the medical sector. In these times, the new buzzwords for market reform are “consumer choice,” “consumer direction,” “consumer empowerment,” and “ownership.”","PeriodicalId":82632,"journal":{"name":"Saint Louis University law journal","volume":"51 1","pages":"127-147"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70626094","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Barnhizer","doi":"10.2139/SSRN.684255","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2139/SSRN.684255","url":null,"abstract":"I argue that the key consequence of the collectives of multicultural, postmodernists, radical feminists, critical race activists, sexuality advocates and others working for radical change is not only the politicization of knowledge in what is after all a realm of politics we call law, but the incoherence of knowledge and the loss of the quality and integrity of our pursuit of knowledge through scholarship. One result is that much of the scholarship and teaching found in the humane and political or noncumulative disciplines such as law are forms of self-interested propaganda in which honesty is muted or excluded and truth-seeking and balance are subordinated to predetermined political agendas. The dominant premise of this essay is that we have established a culture of argument, condemnation and subtle pressure within our academic institutions that is chilling honest discourse about fundamental social concerns in ways that destroy the ideal of the university as a center of open communication in which freedom of discourse in teaching and scholarship are paramount. Academia - which ought to provide solutions and linkages - has itself become a vehicle of intolerance. I challenged such behavior when it was being done by an orthodoxy that used its power to inhibit free thought when I first came into the law school world, and I challenge it here when the identity and ideology of the actors have been reversed and a newly dominant orthodoxy is imposing its will on others.","PeriodicalId":82632,"journal":{"name":"Saint Louis University law journal","volume":"50 1","pages":"361"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67799587","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
