blind hope that you don't end up on the wrong side of that 40%.

CA schools in this economy are hurting.

Did this info come out with last years USN rankings? aka can somebody make a graph like this in the spring for the class of 2010 employment?

Wow, amazing...

Great graphs, these have always been very helpful. Just wondering, would an attorney practicing Workers Compensation be classified under public interest?

The employer type categories (law firm, public interest, government, clerkships, academia, and business) regard only the type of employer, not the kind of work you're doing, either by licensing requirements or substance.

This means that an attorney practicing workers' compensation can be in any of the categories. Classification only depends on who the person works for.
