so for that reason alone, here are some links, so there can be at least one post explaining why cooley is a dumpster fire

Law schools like Cooley are predatory and fraudulent. And this is many people here's profession, so there is an interest in making it better and Cooley makes it worse.

There's also the loans you probably will not pay back in full.

I'd say these two reasons+just a general sense of compassion/not wanting people to ruin their lives

Yep.

Also I view it as sort of an obligation to pass it on. If not for TLS I would have probably been fucked like all the fools who go to Cooley.

The dream is alive. Why is it people here have to take a fat shit on it? In my long (5 year) and highly prestigious career, I've settled with a dirt bag borderline (if not crossed it) incompetent piece of shit plaintiffs attorney that god damn it would cost my client more to prove how full of shit he was than pay him what is - to my client - nuisance fee. The world needs ditch diggers and Cooley lawyers I suppose - but I've read in Japan they revere even the old-man janitor because he does something that there is a need for - and he's a fucking person putting food on his table for his family.

Am I the only one who sees the incongruence when people say "don't go to law school, unless you go to an elite institution" but who then also say "the legal profession is dying because of the proliferation of cheap labor"? Who is on the dying end of that spectrum?

Whatever point you are trying to make doesn't make a whole lot of sense.
