Not terribly helpful, but perhaps this will serve as a bump for you if nothing else.

Unless you are at a T14, heading in to February of 3L without anything for post-grad, I wouldn't be too certain that you are going to have a ton of options. That said, I hope you do.

I've heard some not so great things about WG, but that's solely an anecdote. They have a summer program, though, and likely do a fair amount of hiring from that. I've heard salaries are low for hours.
With that being said, you are late in the game. If you have the grades (or the school), apply, apply, apply. Tough for you to be picky at this point. Good luck.

What are we talking in terms of low? (Not OP, just curious as well)

This is me. I heard 70-80k as well. Obviously thats not bad money, but if we are comparing to some other 'mid law' in philly it is a little low. My supervisor for my 1L internship said they had a poor rep for pay/hours.

Well, OP - do you have a job? Beggars can't be choosers

And do you even have an offer from Weber yet? Kind of a non issue to be complaining that a firm works you too hard and pays you too little when you don't even have an offer from them yet (or indeed, any offers at all)

You were a set to be a Temple 1L in fall of 2014, how are you a graduating 3L already? Don't make things up.

Sooooo....in other words...OP is Blue Lotus, right?

[Anonymous User]

I don't follow (using anon because I have no interest in starting crap with Lotus) ... why would someone lie about being a 3L versus a 2L? Or make up a stupid pedestrian thread like this?
