How have job prosects been for Loyola Chicago grads?

Obviously the legal market has been really tough on everyone, but I wanted to know how well Loyola Chicago grads have been doing or what current students feel about their opportunities after graduation.

I imagine Chicago is a really competitive city. You have:

University of Chicago and Northwestern as obvious elite schools and then you have Chicago-Kent, Loyola, and DePaul. All of which seem to be solid law schools, but imagine this leads to great competition for jobs.

How is the market for Loyola grads?

Not sure about the current market. It wasn't great from last I heard, but this is kind of the break down in hierarchy, I think.


HYS/Chicago
Northwestern/Michigan
Rest of the T-14
ND/WUSTL/Illinois
Iowa/Minn./Wis.
IUB
Loyola/Kent/DePaul

Why did you put Iowa and Wisconsin in a different tier from IUB? Obviously IUB doesn't do great in Chicago, but do you really think it is markedly worse than those two schools?
