lols egregious anti DF trolling.
also, it's not "graduate school," it's professional school. or at least, it's supposed to be. a JD has more in common with a mechanics associates than a liberal arts PhD.
Only lawyers could take an undergraduate degree turn it into a masters and call it a doctorate.
Yeah! Except that law degrees were the original doctorates... Oops...

That's nice and everything, but it doesn't change the fact that in the here and now, the fact that a JD is a "doctorate" is lulzy.
