I'll repeat hog's question, but tag North. Are we doing this again?
North didn't want to run it again, and I think I volunteered to host but I'm not sure how to do the numbers
Ah, that makes sense. If Robb is willing to provide the software support he did last year, the numbers do themselves. If not, I think I understand how to do them by hand, which basically means taking an afternoon. The fortunate thing is that we get the numbers leaked through Spivey, which gives us time to check, but then don't declare them official until the official release. If you need hand-checking of the numbers, I'm down to help with that, though I don't think we're likely to find anyone interested in W&L swag as prize support.
Okay I have to think of prizes but then I'll post this afternoon.

UNC's dean complaining about the U.S. News.com rankings. So presTTTigious!
That's an oddly desperate email from what seems to still be a pretty decent regional law school.
At the risk of derailing the thread, it seems like UNC has had its funding cut pretty drastically and I would bet they struggle to keep their medians and class size steady this year.
Yeah, the state legislature has it in for the law school. Trying to keep them at bay while playing the rankings game is a bit much to ask of any administrator.
