News algorithm always lurk in the background." Duke University "While Michigan has consistently resisted the pressure to take actions that are contrary to our mission, the demands of the U.S. "Nonetheless, law schools to a greater or lesser degree sometimes are forced to consider the effect of any changes in their programs on their rank," Michigan Law Dean Mark D. "That said, overreliance on a single source can distort decision-making, and any given ranking is only as useful as the relevance and accuracy of the comparative information on which it is based." University of California, Berkeleyīerkeley Law Dean Erwin Chemerinsky listed three reasons: Rankings penalize schools that emphasize public service law, disregards and disadvantages students pursuing advanced degrees, and rankings create incentives for deprioritizing things the school believes is critical.
News has long aggregated data about law schools," said UVA School of Law Dean Risa Goluboff wrote. "Rankings can provide helpful guidance, and U.S. News methodology-through its debt and employment metrics-penalizes schools that support graduates pursuing public interest careers," NYU Law Dean Troy McKenzie said. News ranking methodology is unnecessarily secretive and contrary to important parts of the Law School’s mission, including Penn Carey Law’s increasing investment in need-based financial aid and public interest lawyering," Penn Carey Law said in a statement. "As has been expressed and discussed elsewhere, the current U.S. "Overall, the methodology creates incentives that work against schools’ interest in attracting and retaining classes of students with a broadly diverse set of qualities and experiences, and in supporting the widest possible array of career choices for their graduates-whether in the private sector, in public interest and government organizations, or in academia," Columbia Law Dean Gillian Lester said. News ranking methodology (also highlighted by our colleagues at Yale) that work against law schools’ commitments to enhancing the socioeconomic diversity of our classes to allocating financial aid to students based on need and, through loan repayment and public interest fellowships, to supporting graduates interested in careers serving the public interest," said John Manning, Harvard Law dean. "In particular, we have raised concerns about aspects of the U.S. "For example, the US News ranking methodology inappropriately discourages public service by treating students whose schools provide fellowships to support such work much the same as it treats students who are unemployed," Stanford Law Dean Jenny Martinez said. "It also pushes schools to use financial aid to recruit high-scoring students." Stanford University "This heavily weighted metric imposes tremendous pressure on schools to overlook promising students, especially those who cannot afford expensive test preparation courses," Yale Law School Dean Heather K. The announcement precipitated a wave of withdrawals from the rankings as law schools, medical schools, and undergraduate programs have since decided they also disagree with the rankings' methodology and impacts. However, USNWR said it will still rank withdrawn schools with publicly available data. When an institution withdraws, they commit to no longer submitting information to the U.S. The Ivy League institutions' respective law schools announced they would withdraw from the rankings system last November because its "profoundly flawed" methodology disincentivizes schools from helping disadvantaged students.
