A law school for the 21st century

Though Professor Erwin Chemerinsky is a misguided lib, he's also a brilliant scholar and legal educater. The Founding Dean of the new UC Irvine Law School, Chemerinsky lays out his vision for Irvine's model of legal education and challenges more established law schools to follow suit. The gist of his message is to focus on preparing students to practice law. A salutary and obvious goal, too often overlooked.
