@MarkMovsesian @MarcODeGirolami Yeah, he didn’t cook a lot, but when he did, it was great.

Professor @dnyellen has been appointed to the @ABAesq Section of Legal Education’s Special Advisory Committee, comprised of elite legal minds to advise the Council’s Core Principles Review and accreditation standards. #MiamiLaw https://t.co/L2wadyWyvZ

@lawprofblawg It will come. Just keep digging.

Ham sandwiches everywhere can rest easier.

The Council of the ABA Section of Legal Education is under serious attack. If it is to remain as the national accreditor/approver of law schools, some major reforms are needed. Here are some thoughts:

The end of an era. Thanks so much for doing this all these years @SoCalTaxProf

I guess Judge Sol Wachtler was wrong (or was the problem that this was an Italian BMT sandwich, not simply ham?)

The Council of the ABA Section of Legal Education recently adopted these thoughtful core principles of accreditation. I hope they truly commit to following them, which would lead to scaling back the overreach in the Standards.

@ProfRobAnderson @derektmuller The ABA Standards are arguably the best in the country on consumer disclosure and the worst in the country on substantive micromanagement and overreach.

Some very sensible thoughts about law school accreditation reform from Barry Currier (former Managing Director of Legal Education at the ABA).

My thoughts about ABA overreach in regulating law schools.

[David Yellen @dnyellen]

And the important broader point is that, after some years of increasing the flexibility in the Standards, the Council seems to be reversing course by considering more demanding mandates. Why? @derektmuller @DBRodriguez5 @jadler1969

[Daniel B. Rodriguez @DBRodriguez5]

Further, the Section seems rather fearless in its effort to implement a more radical set of requirements, at the moment when it is facing serious scrutiny for its accreditation role writ large. Curious. @derektmuller @jadler1969 @dnyellen

[David Yellen @dnyellen]

I actually think that 15 credits of experiential learning is a worthy and attainable goal. But not by mandate of the accreditor. @DBRodriguez5 @derektmuller @jadler1969

@OrinKerr @DownBeatMag @LoyolaLaw Thanks for sharing. Somehow I worked with Juan for 5 years and didn’t know about this side of him. Very cool!

American universities are neither without flaws, nor above criticism, but they have contributed mightily to society. Lee Bollinger makes the case powerfully. https://t.co/d5EoSQqG1B

Had not heard of this bizarre practice in Wisconsin. Bipartisan craziness.

Great conversation, as they always are between @jacklgoldsmith and Bob Bauer.

Bob Bauer and I discuss Wilkinson’s CA4 opinion and the Boasberg contempt opinion. https://t.co/JLxwoJZJ5n

This feels like an important moment, with Harvard joining Princeton.
