Thought that they were affiliated with the University of Phoenix online brand...Disappointed that there won't be any online law schooling 
The Socratic method would be awesome online.

Re: Smoking can be bad for you...
So, are we assuming no government interference? Or just the government cannot force them to close? I think the more productive discussion would be assuming no gov't interference whatsoever (unless it is a practical campaign to change policy, instead of a magic wand "if government only did this").
W/o gov't interference, honestly so much has already been done to try and shed light on this issue. Itlss along with a general shift in common beliefs becoming more and more realistic have probably helped numerous hopefuls avoid these schools, but others will simply never find these websites or not listen. Possibly, we can push our alma maters for more informed pre-law advisors? Not sure about the practicality or usefulness of that one (like anyone uses a pre-law advisor these days).
Maybe Create websites so that when people search "Barry Law" their first hit might be the schools website, but the second hit would be something like "the Barry Law scam" with lst numbers and a description of how such a school could ruin ones life (and i guess just do that for every scam school? Would take a lot of work and dedication for no money). Hopefully, it'll be more visible that way instead of hoping people find TLS.
Besides that...campaign the gov't, ABA and all that.

My SO works for a PE fund who looked into buying InfiLaw. They decided it wasn't ethically or morally responsible to be involved in such a thing. It also comes with a HUGE legal risk, with all of the potential lawsuits (sort of ironic...)

Lol. I love that they deemed the very existence of Infilaw unethical. 100% true.unclepete wrote:My SO works for a PE fund who looked into buying InfiLaw.
