The Tributaries to the River

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  27 December 2018

Extract

In the field of legal education research, everyone talks about the importance of examining long-term outcomes, but nobody has done much about it-until now. ‘Michigan's Minority Graduates in Practice’ (Lempert, Chambers, and Adams 2000) is pioneering work, providing the most comprehensive look anyone has yet undertaken at the long-term experiences, achievements, and attitudes of specific law school cohorts. Moreover, it is work done at the highest social science standards-a standard not met often enough in this field. The care and professionalism of Richard Lempert, David Chambers, and Terry Adams will rightly give their findings enormous credibility.
