my local T4 is doing the exact same thing. A 2L there told me they'll all have higher GPA's come the start of this school year bc the school is retroactively "fixing" them from previous semesters.

Is this really a huge advantage? What if your school has a shitty curve? :x

This bad press will only hurt Loyola students, at least for a few years. I know that if I was a Hiring Partner at a firm, and I was on the fence between a Loyola student and another applicant, I would choose the other.

If nothing else, I wouldn't hire Samuel Liu. I have no respect for changing the system, after the fact, to benefit yourself at the expense of others.
