I can't say I am surprised, though, at the slip in rankings -- given how much the rankings depend on a school's reputation with judges and attorneys, and given the (frankly) crap-tacular research and writing abilities of the interns and recent grads from that law school, it is more a case of chickens coming home to roost than anything else. If the school wants to turn the rankings around, it absolutely needs to beef up the research and writing program. But Rapoport shouldn't be the scapegoat for the problem -- the faculty are just as guilty.</p>
