 The Leiter Reports: Editorials, News, Updates: Will Northwestern University Law School Still be a Top Law School Ten ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
In the mid-20th century, Northwestern University School of Law was one of the handful of super elite law schools in the US; it clearly dominated its Hyde Park neighbor, the University of Chicago Law School.
Northwestern has, to be sure, made some lateral hires during the same time, some rather good, but by no one's estimation have they been adequate to offset the remarkable set of losses.
My assessment: there is now a real risk that Northwestern's law school--which does, indeed, have the best facilities of any urban law school in the country--may be about to slip out of the ranks of elite law school faculties.
