Enhanced Legal E-Ducation: Knowledge Technology At Cornell Law School, Sasha Skenderija

Cornell Law Faculty Working Papers

In 2008, it comes as no surprise that new knowledge technologies have had a significant impact upon the field of legal education as well.

Knowing Which Deanship Is The Right One, R. Lawrence Dessem Jul 2008

Knowing Which Deanship Is The Right One, R. Lawrence Dessem

Faculty Publications

In this Article, I elaborate on this subject and suggest ways in which the dean candidate can avoid the poor fit that might lead to a deanship that is unsatisfactory, either for her as dean or for the law school that otherwise might hire her. In order to maximize the chance of a good fit between the dean candidate and law school, the candidate should (1) carefully plan her law school dean search; (2) conduct thorough discovery concerning schools of potential interest during the search process; (3) be candid and open during the interview process; and (4) take time to …

Before You Log-On: Incorporating The Free Web In Your Legal Research Strategy, Lauren M. Collins

Law Faculty Articles and Essays

In 2006, the American Bar Association (ABA) published its Legal Technology Survey Report, which included a volume on Online Research. In the report, attorneys responded that 91% are conducting at least some of their research online. Though 39% report that they start their research using a fee-based service like Westlaw or Lexis, the report shows that even those who start their research with a fee-based resource eventually get it right-87% of attorneys report using some free online resources at some point over the course of a research project.

Measuring Outcomes: Post-Graduation Measures Of Success In The U.S. News & World Report Law School Rankings, Andrew P. Morris, William D. Henderson

Indiana Law Journal

The U.S. News & World Report annual rankings play a key role in ordering the market for legal education, and, by extension, the market for entry level lawyers. This Article explores the impact and evolution of placement and post-graduation data, which are important input variables that comprise twenty percent of the total rankings methodology. In general, we observe clear evidence that law schools are seeking to maximize each placement and post-graduation input variable. During the 1997 to, 2006 time period, law schools in all four tiers posted large average gains in employment rates upon graduation and nine months, which appear …
