Antoinette is correct – the Outcome Measures Report is a MUST READ. In particular, the Report makes excellent recommendations about how to amend ABA Standards to focus on preparing students for professional life while providing flexibilty to schools. The report compares law preparation to other professional school preparation for real life interaction with clients/patients in charts which illuminate where law school preparation appears quite lacking. Thank you Randy and the entire committee for such a wonderful effort. We all should do what we can to move these recommendations forward.
