		A law school is usually an autonomous entity within a larger university and is considered to be a graduate or professional school program.
		In most countries, law is an undergraduate degree and graduates of such a program are eligible to become lawyers by passing the country's equivalent of a bar exam.
		Students considering law school should note that although law school tuition is notoriously high, it is not uncommon for law students to receive grants and scholarships, or more rarely complete tuition waivers, from their schools.

	University of Pennsylvania Law School Commencement Remarks, May 19, 2003
		Law reform, too, is a form of "public service." One of my law school colleagues told me years ago: "Go to meetings - bar association meetings." Learn to love those bar associations with their 400,000 members and 600,000 committees.
		Also not surprisingly, one top law school recently found the percentage of recent graduates beginning their careers in the public or non-profit sector fell from about 12% in the l970's to under 4% in 1998.
		American law is not decreed from the top, but rather "bubbles up." The Constitution provides for a rule of law; protects basic liberty; guarantees certain forms of equality; divides power to prevent too much power falling into the hands of too few individuals; and, above all, creates a framework for democratic government.
